Rigoletto' Opens
Anniversary Season
(Editor's note: Reviewer-column-
ist Lyelle Palmer is a doctoral stu-
dent in the School of Music and a
critical writing student in the jour-
nalism department.)
The Dallas Civic Opera celebrat-
ed its 10th anniversary with the
jcala opening of the current season
Saturday night in a local produc-
ton of Verdi's "Rigoletto."
As a milestone, the evening la-
bored under the spectre of past
Civic Opera triumphs by Maria
Callas, Joan Sutherland and others
who made Dallas opera world-fam-
ous.
In a cast that emphasized dra-
matic voices, dramatic baritone
Peter Glossop dominated the eve-
ning. His characterization assumed
greater proportion and depth as
the evening progressed.
The first-act aria "Caro nome"
and the second act duets were well
received as soprano Margherita
Rinaldi made her U. S. debut as
"Gilda."
THE FINALE confirmed suspic-
ions that the best voices were as-
signed to secondary roles. Bass

sassin Sparafucile, and alto Rian-

camaria Casoni exhibited the most
brilliant timbres of the night.
These singers and Gilda Cruz as
Giovanna provided the only cry-
stalline sounds.
Tenor Carlo Bergonzi as the
Duke was well received in his
showlike renditions. One must sus-
pect, however, that the enthusiasm
expressed by the audience for the
traditionally hackneyed and trivial
"La Donna e Mobile" was an en-
thusiasm more for the song than
for bis dramatic voice.
The stage settings, lighting and
costumes were, as always, brilliant,
imaginative and ingenious. Each
provided a pleasing tableau when
general stage action was lacking.
The quartet "Bella figlia dell'
amore" was the most musically
pleasing of the evening and was so
recognized by much of the audi-
ence. The trio of Zaccaria, Casoni
and Rinaldi was better still, but
the orchestra fabric complicated
things to the disadvantage of the
vocal ensemble.
AS PERFORMED Saturday
night, "Rij?oletto" was a series of
tableaus with a dramatic thread
so centering on the main charact-
ers that the various short and sec-
ondary roles seemed incongruous
intrusions into the dramatic action
by ghosts suddenly come alive. As
the main characters resorted to
showmanship the contrast became
greater and greater.
This first performance of the
season exhibited smooth coherence
in spite of minute faults, which
should be replaced by lustre when
next performed at Dallas' State
Fair Music Hall Friday night at 8.
Other offerings for the season
include Puccini's "La Boheme"
Sunday and Nov. 19, and another
Verdi work, "Macbeth," on Nov.
23 and 26.
