Early 1900's Opera soprano Queena Mario (1896-1951) studied under Polish
soprano Marcella Sembrich before her debut with the San Carlo Opera Company
in 1918. After touring for a number of years, Mario made her debut with the
Metropolitan Opera in 1922, staying at the opera house for several years and
over 300 performances. Roles during her time with the Met include Nedda in
Leoncavallo's I Pagliacci, Gilda from Giuseppe Verdi's
Rigoletto, Mimi in Puccini's La Boheme, and Sophie of
Richard Strauss' Der Rosenvavalier. Mario had a lengthy and
acclaimed opera career, and after her final performance at the met in 1938, went
on to teach vocal classes at The Julliard School of New York and
Philadelphia's Curtis Institute. She also received praise for her writing of
several opera themed murder mysteries and a newspaper column, though both were
written under different monikers than Queena Mario. Corners lightly worn and
creased. Edges lightly worn. Light surface scratches and creases (not seen head
on). Otherwise, fine condition.
