Noticeable in the crowd were a number of young people. Martini's every note was light, sweet, and true to pitch, with an absolute absence of that boisterous volume so dear to outmoded opera tic stars. His soft, yet vibrant notes, the slight toss of his chin as he ended each song combined to at tract the audience to the fact of his personality.

So spontaneous was the audience's appreciation of the French song, "Vous dansez Marquise," that the 31-year-old lyric tenor generously sang It again. He was called back for three encores at the end of the program. Hie singer's program contained no heavy selections, but according to his custom, was made up of the lighter, more understandable arias Most of the numbers were In Ital ian, a few in French, and only three In English. Miguel Sandoval, Martini's accompanist, received enthusiastic ac-cliiiin himself when he played two groups of piano selections. His sensitive touch was almost as singing as Martini's voice.
