ASHEVILLE, N. C.. July 29? p
When the San Carlo Grand Opera C
Company opens Asheville's third an- p
nual Grand Opera season on Mon- t
day evening, August 9, iJie mountain p
city will enter upon the most ambiti- p
i? Western N. C. Rrought s
uoa la
here under the asplces of me Ashe- f
ville Music Festival Association, the t
San Carlo roster will include artists ' o
noted, nationaly and internationally, I
and the goal set by Fortune Gallo, 1
imperessario of the San Carlo group. ?
seems destined to achieve for this f
brief season the most perfect ensem- I
ble artists ever seen in the Caro v
Unas. Always a financial and artis- <
tic success in Asheville, Grand Opera s
this year promises to be the crown t
ing feature of a series of successive i
notable events which have made *
this city a center of artistic and I
social glory- '
The repertoire announced yester- (
day for opera week, August 9 ? 14,
was selected by Fortune Gallo sped- (
fically to meet the musical wishes I
of music lovers in Asheville, and it <
embraces what opera lovers regard i
as a perfect balance of outstanding <
works. From Rossini's flippant and i
airy "Barber of Seville" to the re- j
nowned, ponderous, but magnificient (
"Aida" of Verdi, the range of selec- (
tlons touches every spot or operauc <
lore. There will be an opera for j
every taste, and plenty of entertain- <
ment for the eye, as for the gently (
attuned ear. i
. "Carmen", Biset's famous and
thrilling opera, redolent with Spanish
airs and Spanish atmosphere,
will open the season on Monday ,
evening, August 9. The favorite opera
of the vast majority of music
lovers ? the bewitching, tuneful,
vivacious "Madam Butterfly, is scheduled
for Tuesday evening, while i
Wednesday will have both at matinee
and in the evening two of the
most masterful pieses of musical
glory ever accomplished by a composer,
Matinee will offer Rossini's
bright captivating "Barber of Se- i
vllle", while the evening opera will
be "Aida". Thursday night will see
"Lucia dl Lammermoor" with Its
magnificient coloratura lead and the
Immortal "Sevtette", and Friday "La
Bohme", often matched against
"Madam Butterfly as Puccini's most
popular and effective work. Saturday's
matinee, "The Tales of Hoffman",
though in a decidedly lighter
mood, will be no less tuneful than
the rest of the repertoire. Indeed,
this light but perfect music will
prove a revelation to those who for
years have been Rearing snatcheq
of It, but have never known the pre
cise sourde of them. Delightful
strains in abundance have been purloined
from this pleasing work, and

greater in Ashevilje than it is now
in anticipation of the San Carlo season.
