| Saroya�s stage preparation for Martinelli�s Tosca consisted of going to the tenor�s room with Meola and stage director, Agnini, and being told �at this point, you stand here and �then you stand there.�/ pg 11- 1922-1978 SFO-Bloofield |
| The new Cavadossi was Mario Chanlee, a young American with an appealing spinto tenor not entirely unreminiscent of Richard Tauber or Gigli. Emphatically an above-average actor, Chamlee knew how to engage sympathy./ pg 34- 1922-1978 SFO-Bloofield |
| Lotte Lehmann sang another Tosca opposite Charles Kullman, fresh from European success. In those days his voice � which had real sex appeal � was in full bloom, but it was never a grandly scaled instrument./ pg 68- 1922-1978 SFO-Bloofield |
| Tenor Carlo Ventre made an impassioned Mario Cavaradossi, his voice well-suited to the verismo style. Yet his, to [Lado Ataneli as Baron Scarpia] Lado Ataneli as Baron Scarpia o, was a gentler, more moderate interpretation. And while his two major arias (the paean to art, �Recondite armonia,� and the reflective �E lucevan le stelle�) earned him easy applause, much of their effect was undermined by his excessive rolling of his r�s. (In fact, one wag shouted out on opening night, mocking him.) He was especially convincing in his final duet with Tosca, �O dolce mani� (Hands so sweet and pure)./ SFCV |
