SEVENTH WEEK OF OPERA
Chicago Civic Opera Company Continues to Fill the
Calendar with Rare Lyric Treats.
Having reached the crest of the season, Chicago's
Civic Opera continues to crowd the calendar with
rare lyric treats.
The seventh festive week of Chicago's most lavish
lyric season will open with the usual suburban spe-
cial matinee on Sunday afternoon, December 11, with
an all-star cast in the most tuneful of operas,
"Martha." Edith Mason, Tito Schipa, Irene Pav-
loska, Virgilio Lazzari and Vittorio Trevisan will
have leading roles in which they have frequently
won the plaudits of enthusiastic audiences, and
Roberto Moranzoni will conduct the tuneful, spar-
kling work.
"Tosca" will be sung Monday evening by the bril-
liant cast which gave so exciting a performance of
Puccini's tragedy at its one earlier hearing of the
winter. Claudia Muzio will be the Roman singer;
Charles Hackett, the painter-patriot, and Vanni-
Marcoux will add his tense characterization of the
villainous police chief. Vittorio Trevisan will be
heard as the sacristan, one of this expert comedian's
finest achievements. Giorgio Polacco will conduct,
and the opera will be followed by a ballet, danced
by the entire terpsichorean corps, with solos by Maria
Yurieva and Vechslav Swoboda, Charles Lauwers
conducting.
