I repeatedly heard Herr Fricke — the leading lasso profondissimo of the Hofoper in 1867, who, by the way, still occupies that distinguished position — sing his whole part through a fraction of a tone below pitch. Every musical ear in the house must have suffered a long agony under that torture ; but I could detect no sign of disapprobation or murmur of remonstrance. |
