Regarded by many as the foremost maestro of the age, Toscanini — is at least certain of an honored place when the final history of musical achievement is written. Almost thirty-one years ago from date Arturo Toscanini conducted his first opera at La Scala in Milan. He was then thirty years of age and had already achieved success as a conductor, notably because of his brilliant leadership of the Symphony Orchestra in Rio de Janeiro. Since his Milan début Toscanini’s fame has grown apace. From 1898 to 1915 he served as conductor at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City, where he revived many of the almost forgotten masterpieces of the 18th century and startled his audiences by an amazing ability to lead without a score. At present he divides his time between La Scala and the New York Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra, which organization he directs with Willem Mengelberg. Recent cable reports state that Toscanini has consented to lead a number of Wagnerian operas at Bayreuth “in 1930.

As a younger artist (he still is young) his contributions were made to the Black and the Blue Label classes. By sheer force of merit he won a place among the immortals of modern vocal music, and his records now are made in the Red Seal class. 3 He has sung with the Metropolitan Opera Company, and in concert everywhere throughout the United States. He is the son of George Werrenrath, who was himself a famous singer. He was born of Danish ancestry, in Brooklyn, N. Y., and graduated from New York University. He has a splendid rich baritone voice, clear, smooth and sympathetic, and beyond that he sings with extraordinary understanding and intelligence. WERRENRATH
