Among the announcements of general manager for the impending opera season of twenty-three weeks' duration, which begins at the Metropolitan Opera House on November 11, 1918 two are of special interest. The first performance anywhere of three new operas by Italy's leading composer, Giacomo Puccini and the revival, in a new version, of "Oberon," by Carl Maria Von Weber, whom is called "the most German of all composers." It will be remembered that the manager of the Metropolitan succeeded in getting what journalists call the "world premiere" of the opera "Otello."
