REMAINING GIGLT. leading tenor
of the Metropolitan Opera Com
pany. will make his concert debut in
Washington at Polls Theater Friday
afternoon, February 20. as the fifth
and final artist in the Artists course
Gigli Is regarded as the successor
of the late Enrico Caruso. and despite
the enormous popularity he has
achieved with Metropolitan audiences,
is still only 80 years old. Gigli was
engaged by GattiCasaz in 1920,
when Caruso's illness made it neceS-
-sary to add another powerful tenor
figure to the Metropolitan roster. He
had achieved sensational successes in
South America, Italy and other coun-
tries of Europe. His feeling for line
and phrase is declared to be phenom-
email and it is his practice to sing
excerpts from popular operas in each
of his concerts.
Signor Gigli is said to have arranged
a delightful program for his Wash
ington appearance, to be announced
within a short time. Seats for his
concert are on sale at Mrs. Wilson
