VICTOR RECORDS Namber age of 23, after he had studied for four years, he made his debut at the Teatro Reale, in Malta, as Amonasro m Aida, singing later at that house in nine other roles. Scotti's career was now open to him. He sang in turn in many of the great theatres of Italy and filled six seasons in South America. Engagements at the Teatro Reale, Madrid, and in St. Petersburg, Moscow, Warsaw and Odessa, established his reputation. His London dAut was made as Don Giooanni, under the management of Mr. Grau, who at once engaged him for the Metropolitan. Since that time he has been a constant visitor to America, where he has won fame in many parts, notably as Don Giovanni, Scarpia, Tonio and Amonasro. Scotti’s impressive Scarpia is one of his most famous impersonations, while as Falstaff he recently achieved an artistic triumph. Signor Scotti, who sings exclusively for the Victor, has made a number of very fine solo records, besides singing in many duets and other concerted numbers with other artists.
