Featuring Such Renowned Artists As
GIOVANNI MARTINELLI
Leading Tenor Of The Metropolitan Opera
GIOVANNI MARTINELLI is at the zenith of a remarkable career: For two score
years at the Metropolitan he has been "getting better and -better." If there has been
a legitimate successor to Caruso, by unanimous consent the award would go to this
distinguished tenor. His many appearances in Ann Arbor in concert, Festival
works, and in artist night programs, have endeared him to music lovers, and the
coming occasion will partake of a triumphant "home-coming."

HELEN

JEPSON

New
Of

Sensational Lyric Soprano
The Metropolitan Opera

HELEN JEPSON is a "queen of song and of beauty." Outstanding success with
the Metropolitan Opera Quartet, followed by brilliant engagements in Broadway's
august Opera House, placed her among the outstanding opera stars of the day.
Young, beautiful, and with poise and personality, combined with artistry of the
highest order, she represents a composite ideal of what a great artist should be.
Her voice is clear and pure, and her keen intellect, in keeping with her musical gifts,
has made her a "marked woman."

MARY

MOORE

New Brilliant Coloratura Soprano
Of The Metropolitan Opera
MARY MOORE, the youngest member of the Metropolitan Opera Association,
upon her triumphant debut on last St. Patrick's Day received the following telegram
from Grace Moore: "Congratulations and best wishes - the Moores have done it
again!" This latest Moore says of herT Irish ancestors, "They were all kings and
poets and all." Critics "sing her praises to the skies" and she is proclaimed the third
member of that renowned trumvirate of coloraturas which also includes Gafli-Curci
and Lily Pons, whose first Festival contracts also called for Ann Arbor appearances.

MAXIM

PENTELEIEFF

Stupetndous "Boris" Of

rTihe Raissalt

Grand Opera Coinpany
MAXIM PANTELEIEFF is acknowledged to be the "greatest Boris since Chaliapin
was in his prime." "Stupendous" is the term generally applied to his performances.
Both the quality of his own voice, as well as his interpretations and the breadth of
his conception, have carried him far. With such a "Boris" in the cast, the perform-
ance of this monumental work promises to bring the Festival to a close in a "blaze
of glory." After a brilliant operatic career in Russia, he toured Japan and China;
and first came to America as director and leading baritone of the Russian Grand
Opera Company, where his successes have been phenomenal.
