170 VICTROLA BOOK OF THE OPERA —DER FREISCHUTZ
Text Appearing After Image:
CLAIRE DUX AS AGATHA The word Freischutz, probably better translatedas free marksman, means a Schiitz or marksmanwho uses charmed bullets which do not depend onthe aim of the shooter. Overture to Freischutz By Sousas Band *35000 12-inch, $1.25By La Scala Orchestra *62636 10-inch, .75The overture presents the story of the operain a condensed form. An introduction with a tenderhorn passage leads us into the forest. Night is fall-ing and mysterious sounds are heard. The allegro,representing the doubts of the good but vacillatingyoung hunter, begins, and the sound of the magicbullets can be heard as they drop in the meltingpot. Next a beautiful melody, portraying love andhappiness, appears, but this in turn is succeeded byanother mood of distress. At length the triumph-ant strain indicative of the final victory is sounded,leading up to a splendid climax. The story of the opera is founded on a German tradition, told among huntsmen, that whoever will sell his soul to Zamiel, the Demon Hunte
