Plan Opera
For Detroit
Final plans for Detroit's 1960
Metropolitan Opera season, May
23-27, were previewed recently at
Veterans Memorial.
Some 400 campaign workers
were informed of the details for
this season by speakers Mrs. Henry
Ford II, chairman of the cam-
paign, Frank W. Donovan, presi-
dent of the Detroit Grand Opera
Association, Rudolf Bing, the
Met's general manager, and Fran-
cis Robinson, assistant manager.
Four of the five operas to be
given were new productions at
the Met this year, Bing said.
Last year the season's success
was so great that the Grand Opera
Association had to refund $60,000
in tickets due to a sellout, Dono-
van said.
Tickets will be handled at Grin-
nells this year and mailed out as
soon as requests are received. The
deferred applications date is set
for Feb. 15 and the box office
opens some three weeks before
May 23.
Donovan said that 2,500 tickets
at a $2.50 discount were being
allotted to music students at
Wayne State University, Univer-
sity of Detroit, Marygrove and
Mercy colleges.
With five operas this year, he
said, 4,500 additional seats are
offered for sale.
These operas include: "Simon
Boccanegra," May 23; "The Gypsy
Baron," with Walter Slezak, May
24; "The Marriage of Figaro,"
May 25, "Andrea Chenier," May
26, and "Il Trovatore," May 27.
Allare new productions except
"Chenier," which has been stand-
ard at the Met since 1955.
Like last year, opening night
will be a benefit for the Founders
Society of the Detroit Institute of
Arts. Last year it netted $36,000
for the purchase of art.
Robert Kerns, Pontiac baritone,
and winner of the 1957 Grinnell
Foundation-Detroit Grand Opera
Association scholarship, sang a
