Storace had an opera put into rehearsal, the subject his own choice, Shakspeare's Comedy of Errors. It was made operatical, and adapted for the Italian, by Da Ponte, with great ingenuity. He retained all the main incidents and characters of our immortal bard ; it became the rage, and well it might, for the music of Storace was beyond description beautiful. I performed Antiphohis of Ephesus, and a Signor Calvasi, Antipholus of Syracuse, we were both of the same height, and strove to render our persons as like each other as we could. |
