Four Novelties and RevivalS
Before Christmas, He Says.
ARRIVES FROM EUROPE

in Les Huguenots."

Giulio Gatti-Casazza. general manager
of the Metropolitan Opera House, who ar
rived In New York yesterday morning on
the Kronprinzessin Ceciie. received the
musical reporters In the afternoon in his
| office at the opera house. Mr. Gatti-Ca-
sazza gave some additional facts to the
ones set forth in the prospectus issued on
Monday. and among other things an
nounced that four novelties and REVEALS
would be given before Christmas: Les
Huguenots," THE Magic Flute" Boris
Goudenow" and Les Contes dHofr-
mann" "Cyrano" will be given later in
the season, though II is not yet definitely
decided whether OF not Nine. Aida is to
sing Roxane.
The season will probably open with a
performance Of Les Huguenots' In Ital-
ian. with Caruso In the tenor role" said
Mr.. Gatti. "signor Polacco Will direct.

December /. but can assure the pub
lie that Signor Polacco is a worthy sub

siasms, but consider our new conductor
man Of splendid capacity. He is young,
fresh. authoritative and an artist OF the
first rank. He will also conduct Les
Contes d'Hoffmann.' Les Huguenots' is
is to be given in Italian, az ! feel that
bel canto operas are usually more effec-
tive in that language. Moreover, Meyer
beer WAS a German writing for France,
so the work is. at any rate. a hybrid.
The Magic Flute is to be sung In Ger
man under the direction OF Alfred Hertz
while Boris Goudenow'' will be produced
by Mr.. Toscanini. The three chief barry
tone parts in Les Contes d'Hoffmann'
will be impersonated by three separate
artists, and not as at the Manhattan, by
one-Mr. Renaud. Miss Hempel Will sing
the Doll, and Miss Bori. Julietta. Miss
Bori by the way. achieved a remarkable
success In Buenos Ayres. All three re-
vivais will have special settings.
