Well, of course that’s what gives him the base barreltone.
19th cast. page 222, line 560.
Well, of course that’s what gives him the base barreltone. For instance eunuchs. Wonder who’s playing. Nice touch. Must be Cowley. Musical. Knows whatever note you play. Bad breath he has, poor chap. Stopped.
By chance, for the third time in
succession, a close place was chosen. In the saloon of the Ormond Hotel, the
big Ben Dollard singing, accompanied on the piano by father Cowley. The tune is
"Love and War" by Thomas Simpson Cooke. Mr. Broom listens to it in the
restaurant next door.
In 1894, Ben Dollard, who was singing at a
charity concert at the Glencree Reformatory, had no formal dress, so he went to
the Bloom family, who at that time had a second-hand clothes shop and a costume
rental business, and borrowed a tailsuit. (U222.554) ,(U220.474) and (U636.1285)
The trousers were so tight that the bulge
in the crotch could be clearly seen. So. Mr. Bloom alludes to the castrated
singer.
He again thinks: "Good voice he has
still. Good voice he has still. No eunuch yet with all his belongings." (U233.1027)
“The base barreltone” is a cross between a draught-like barrel(Dollard’s big body) and a
bass-baritone. The red triangular beer brand "Bass" is also used.
I don't understand the meaning of “bad breath”.
“Poor”, because father Cowley is in debt to
a Jewish moneylender, Reuben, and has fallen on hard times. (U200.890)
Episode 11 is written in music-like
language: “Stop” is from an organ stop (sound plug).
