The article presents information on orchestra operas. The American Opera Society opened its season with George Friderick Handel's "Julius Caesar" in place of the originally announced L'Africaine and the first moments-with routine writing by Handel and rough-voiced singing by Siepi were unpromising. But with the lament of Cornelia and Sextus and the singing of Florence Kopleff and Russell Oberlin one began to hear beautiful music beautifully sung. EPIC SC-6013 offers a performance by the Slovenian National Opera of Ljubljana of Prokofiev's youthfully exuberant and inventive music for "The Love for Three Oranges."
