1308 - L Apr. 13:4/5 - The opera opened last night and was musically a
brilliant and complete success. Carl Formes, who made his debut in the
part of "Plunkett," acted and sang with a most captivating abandon, and
brusquerie. Castri was never in better voice. Iler encore was "The Last . .
Rose of Summer." Tonight's opera is Verdi's UN BALL0 IN MASCHERA.
