With a superb performance OF
Verdi's heroic tragedy, YOtello,
based on Shakespeare play, the san
Carlo Grand Opera Company last
night achieved its greatest SUCCESS OF
the week at Polls Theater.
The performance compared favor
ably with any operate performance
in Washington in recent years.
"A perfectly cast, splcrdid
orchestral and choral work and an
artistically polished dramatic hand
ling Of the difficult work were com
bined. To Manuel Salazar, as the
Moor; Mario Basilio as Iago, anu
Blanca Saroya, as Desdemona, an
paid tribute for their mastery work.
Roles Mastery Handled.
Salazar has seldom been in better
voice and he brought to the role q
high order OF dramatic ability. His
long solo following the accusation OF
Desdemona in the third act was
especially well done.
BasiIio was q sinister Iago. The
wonderful 'sCredo" Of the second act,
in which he declaims his perverted
philosophy of life, showed him at his
best, His is baritone voice OF
powerful timber and wide range.
Desdemona has but little OppOr-
tunity before tins fourth act, bit
here, in the pathetic "Willow Song
and the beautiful Ave Maria, =
Saroya gave a splendid perform.

Orchestra and Chorus.
The orchestra and chorus divided
honors. Carlo Peroni conducted in
mastery fashion. The smaller
parts were we'll taken by Anita
Klinova as Emilia, francesca Curci
as Cassie, Arthur Dhoss1e as
Roderigo, PietrO Di Blast as
Lodovico, Natalie Cervi as Montana,
and Pietro Canova as the Herald.
The San Carlo company will
close its weeks stay In Washington
