De Folco has many valued books Of
clippings from newspapers from the
hundreds Of cities In which he has
appeared since 1909. From Buenos
Aires they range to Los Angeles, from
New York City to Naples, Milan, Sc

newspapers have appreciated his gifts
and his English tour included London,
Liverpool, Plymouth, Manchester.

are clippings FROM publications at Ed
inburgh and Liverpool, and there are
whole pages on which are pasted unde-
cipherable columns of articles from
newspapers of Russia, commenting on
his performances when he toured the
Cars domain in grand opera.
OF de Folco's first appearance in
New York, w. B. Chase wrote in the
New York Sun: "Eugenio de Folco,
as the Rhadames in Aida, proved tc

above the noisiest ensembles. 1t was

He threw wealth of ardent tempera

Pitts Sanborn, the musical critic of
the New York Globe, wrote: "As for
the Italian tenor, who made his first
appearance last night, Eugenio de Fol-
CO, he disclosed a genuine tenor voice,
which is a pleasant thing in days
