Intereating For Music Lovers.

The Chicago Opera Association has made a desirable new departure this season in arranging for superior performances of grand opera with notable casts on Sunday afternoons. General Director Campanini thus proposes to cater to out of town patrons of opera, who desire to visit Chicago and return home the same day after witnessing grand opera worthy of the name. This interesting series commences Sunday afternoon at 3 p. m. with a pretentious representation of “Romeo and Juliet” by Gounod, the title roles being given to Lucien Muratore, the greatest French tenor, and Amelita Galli-Curci, the most famous coloratura in the world, together with a star cast, under the personal direction of Cleofonte Campanini.
