She sang four years in the Catholic Cathedral of Hartford, gave singing lessons while she he.self went to Enrico Rosati, the wellâ€"known teacher of Gigli and Lauriâ€"Volpi, for further concentrated study. In 1936 her chance came. She centered the Mctropolitan. Opera Contest. Seven hundredâ€" voices .were heard. Nine reached the semiâ€"finals and two were eventually selected for appearances in the Metropoliten‘s Spring Season. In her eager hands were placed the roles of Maddalena in "Rigoletto" and Lola in "Cavalleria Rusticana", as well as the title part in the longâ€"heralded reâ€" vival of Gluck‘s "Orpheus and Euriâ€" dice". Her success in these parts brought her the choicest plum of all â€" a contract to appear with the Metroâ€" politan during its regular winter seaâ€" son, where she has remained ever since. | She stayed in Italy two years, was well launched there in small opera houses when news of her mother‘s illness brought the contralto back to Hartford. There family problems and the general depression combined to interrupt the natural course of her career. At Kaunas (or Kovno) the blonde, attractive young girl made her debut as Ulrica in Verdi‘s "Masked Ball". There she had the good fortune to meet Antonas Smetona, then the Presâ€" ident of Lithuania. He had heard of the plucky American and had broken all official engzszements to hear her first performance. Afterwards he reâ€" ceived â€"her, congratulated. her. warmly. Soon they became such good friends that she received an invitation to the wedding of his daughter! It was through the President‘s invitation that the Lithuanisn Government later gave her sufficient financial assistance to go to Milan, Italy, for further study.. HMHer talent was so pronounced that it caught the interest of a prominent music lover who financed a trip to Lithuania, the birthplace of her parâ€" ents. Born in Connecticut of Lithuanian parents, goldenâ€"haired, lusciousâ€" voiced> young artist has built up an enviable <career. She has sung with the Mcetropolitan in New York and on tour, has made opera appearances in Chicago, Montreal and ‘Cincinnati, has been soloist with major "orchestras under great conductors, has done raâ€" dio and oratorio~workâ€" with distinction, has starred at the country‘s big music festivels. In concert particularly, her vibrant personality . and. glowing voice have made her one of the most glamâ€" orous figures before the music public. Anna Kaskas was born in Bridgeâ€" port, a vear before her family moved to Hartford where she was brought up. As a growing girl she sang in the choir of the Church of the Holy, Trinâ€" ity and won two scholarships, for voice and piano, at the Hartford Conservaâ€" tory of Music. On the side, to catrn money, she worked as a stenographer. Kaskas, who sings on Wednesday, Janâ€" uary 15, at the Palace Theatre.
