possessed con tinuous flame of continuous beauty highlighted by the chilling contrast of the evil Scarpia chief of police Leif Roar starred this season in the Canadian Opera Com panys Die Walkure But as Scarpia in Tosca his baritone voice produced some of the best music of the opera In this ROGER DOUCET REGULAR SINGER opera he has wider canvas of shapes and colors Indeed as he sings of his desire to possess Tosca the opera primadonna at any price his spinechilling aria is set against the angelic and colorful procession and voices of choir boys They assemble in the church with lighted candles leading the way for the bishop The total ef fect is opera at its dramatic best Conductor Bryan Balkwill had the Toronto Symphony soar in heightened effects during this first act and through to the climax of the opera Hehad the musicians play dramatizmg musical peaks in contrast to lyrical moments of melodic beauty just as Puccini would have intended By the second act Marisa Galvany was interpreting the role of Tosca with beauty and force Toscas strong spirit of determination to save her ar tistlover Cavaradossi from death at the orders of Scarpia reached the audience Indeed OKecfe Centre had an audien ce totally intent upon the un OR CANADIENS He had to learn anthems of many foreign countries MONTREAL The man who sings the national an them at all hockey games at the Montreal Forum has expanded his act to the anthems of many foreign countries During the recent Canada Cup series Roger Doucet not only sang Canada and the Star Spangled Banner but also the anthems of the Soviet Un ion Finland Sweden and Czechoslakia For the Czech anthem he was coached by Czech oslovakian singer who he said told him afterwards Roger was proud of you The hours of coaching were worth it Doucet began his repertoire of foreign anthems when he learned the Japanese anthem for benefit show for Tokyo Joe wrestler disabled in car accident Its sometimes difficult to track down words and music Doucet says Ive had to go to the various consulates where people have been very cooperative Theyre eager to help when stranger is taking the trouble to team their anthem Musically none of the an thems have been difficult Ive had 30 years of singing and con servatory training so music 728983 isnt problem Pronounciation was the greater challenge try to cap ture the flavor of the language itself The Slavic anthems were little harder because of un usual accents on vowels and Hand Made See Pottery Being consonants As for singing his own na tional anthem Doucet says Its still thrill for me Ive been singing all my life and when its no longer thrill well lets say Ill hang up my skates 4+ anodia SEE OUR SELECTION OF BEAUTIFUL POTTERY JARDINEERS DRIED FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS JUST MILE NORTH OF

direction by Constance Fisher was most evident She had the primadonna produce theatre effects that gave naturalness to the operastory Ermanno Mauro had some splendid moments The tenor made the most of his aria highlights giving the audience opera in the best tradition The excellent cast was com pleted with Don McManus as very human Sacristan and William Wildermann as bun ted Angelotti Both had memorable moments vocally Phil Stark Spoletta dressed totally in black as was Scarpia added to the dread atmosphere of the first and second acts as it produced the musical con trast to the beauty of Tosca and her love for Cavaradossi The production generally attained splendid stature among the COCs repertoire Details came through with polish Janet Stubbs was musically lovely as the Voice of the Shepherd The costumes by Suzanne Mess were well designed and complimented the Swedish soprano Marisa Galvanys coloring and physical charm Her use of blending colors against the grey set of the first act was quite artistic giving the effect of 19thcentury painting Sets designed by Lawrence Schafer were appropriate suggesting the interiors rather than clut tering the stage with too many details
