e old affectionate way, butshe informs him she knows of his marriage,but that she forgives his deception. Shedeclares she has told Signora Dufresne of theirintimacy, and in a rage he curses her. Shethen sends him away, crying she is cured ofher love, after assuring him that her firststory was untrue, and that Signora Dufresnereally knows nothing of the affair. The role of Cascart is one of Titta Ruffosbest, and his rendition of the great air, BuonaZaza, del mio buon tempo, from the secondact, is a magnificent one. The second selection made by the bari-tone is the air from Act IV, sung by Miliojust before the parting of the lovers. It is ahighly effective number, emotional yet verymelodious. Those who hear these fine airsare likely to regret that the work has not been adequately presented here.
