A more interesting and more fortunate speculation was the series of representations of Verdi's “Otello" given at the Lyceum Theatre in July, under the direction of Mr. M. L. Mayer, with a complete Milanese troupe— principals, chorus, orchestra, and even mise en scene— expressly brought over from La Scala, where the opera was first produced in February, 1887. Tamagno and Maurel sustained their original parts, and for the former it was his London debut. The performance, exceedingly fine on the whole, was admirably directed by Faccio, the famous chef-d'orchestre of La Scala, who died a year or two later. |
