Galli-Curci Out

So successfully have the carollings of Amelita Galli-Curci established her as a concert singer that the majority of her public is inclined to forget that it was in opera she began her career (Italy, 1910), in opera that she made her U. S. debut (Chicago, 1916), to opera that she has returned each winter for a limited number of performances. As an operatic actress Galli-Curci has only mediocre talent, too mechanical a voice for playacting. Her financial compensation, compared with that for concert-singing, is small. Doubtless influenced by both facts, Galli-Curci announced last week that she was through with the operatic stage. Manhattan's Metropolitan, she said, had released her 'from contract that she might be free to make two years' concert tour through Europe, England, the U. S., Australia.
