WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, JUNE 5, 1920 RAVINIA SEASON TO BE RECORD BREAKER North Shore Villages Canvassed For Funds To Insure of Grand Opera Success By Mabel B. Sargent North shore villages are being given a house to house canvass, and at the rate tickets are selling, Rav- inia promises to be more popular than ever. So much interest has been aroused and so many questions have been asked concerning the artists taking part that it seems well to quote Mr. Eckstein himself on the subject. "The season of Ravinia be opened this year on Saturday night, June 26, by Antonio Scotti, with his masterly delineation of Scarpia in "Tosca" to the Tosca of one of the Metropolitan's great sopranos, Miss Florence Easton, and the Cavaradossi of Morgan Kingston. The splendor of the opening will carry over into the next night, for Charles Hackett, who has been the lyric tenor sensation of the Metro- politan season just finished, has been secured for the Ravinia season, and will make his bow in the beautiful role of the Chevelier des Grieux in "Manon", with Edith Mason, who is coming all the way from Paris to be a member of the Ravinia company for another season, in the title role. Other Songsters Then we have Alice Gentle, who was such a splendid Carmen last year, Milo Picco, Graham Marr, Leon Rothier, Louis D'Angelo, Margery Maxwell and a number of others, upon whom the Ravinia patrons have set their unqualified approval. will be v "There will be some new figures in the company as well. Consuelo Es- cobar de Castro is a young Spanish coloratura from whom we expect great things. She has never sung in opera in the United States, but she was a member of the company that went to the City of Mexico last summer, an organization including Titta Ruffo, and with Giorgia Polac- co as conductor, and she had tri- umphs as notable as theirs. Renato Zanelli is a fine baritone from the Metropolitan, and Paolo Ananian is an excellent buffu-bass from the same company. Those two brilliant con- ductors, Gennaro Papi and Richard | Hageman, will return to direct the repertoire, with the assistance this year of Giacomo Spadoni, who comes from the Chicago Opera association for the purpose." . In view of the enormous increase in expenses, there will be a slight change in the price of the tickets this year, a book of twenty tickets selling for $13, including war tax.
