WOMAN WILL SING
NORWEGIAN SONGS
Program for International Night
Includes Mrs. C. Koella.
By D. M., '32.
Walking into the apartment of
Hjordis GreggKoella was like en-
tering a sunny cottage in Norway.
Norwegian paintings and tapestries,
pieces of silver that are reproduced
from articles used on Viking ships,
and various pieces of Norwegian
heirloom furniture provide a set-
ting that is refreshingly un-Amer-
ican.
Mrs. Koella, the wife of Prof.
Charles Koella of the French de-
partment, completes the picture
with her Titian coloring and old-
.vorld hospitality.
As she showed me the brilliantly
embroidered 'costume she is plan-
ning to wear in the International
Night program tonight, in which.
she will sing Norwegian songs, she
gave me brief pictures of her life in
Norway and on the Continent.
"My first voice teacher was the'
Baroness Munthe de Morgenstierne,
Df Norway," she said, obligingly
3pelling out the name for me. "Her
husband was a pupil of Chopin,
and when visiting her often sat on
the sofa which had belonged to
Chopin.
"Later I went to Paris and stud-
ied a year with Guido Spinetti,"
and she showed me the picture of
a man who looked vaguely like
Basil Rathbone. "In Copenhagen I
worked with Vilhem Herold, direc-
tor of the Opera School of the
Royal Theatre there."
Mrs. Koella has sung for the
royal family of Norway, and for
President Poincaire and Mrs. Poin-
caire in France. The latter she de-
scribes as "very pretty but short-
I was so disappointed."
When she talks about Norway,
her face expresses the enthusiasm
and interest she feels for her home.
"There are only -a little over two
million, five hundred thousand peo-
ple in Norway," she remarked, "andi
yet it is famous for the many great I
men who have lived there, such
as Ibsen, Bjornson, and Hamsun."
