Zustand: Very good. Chicago: Chicago Civic Opera House, 1940., 1940. Very good. - Quarto, 12-1/2 inches high by 9 inches wide. Softcover, bound in light grayish white wraps, with a black & gray toned Art Deco illustration of Salome by Elmer Jacobs illustrating the front cover. The corners are slightly bumped and the edges of the covers are very slightly darkened. [43] unnumbered pages, with the title page illustration of Salome by Elmer Jacobs and profuse illustrated ads throughout. Very good. The program for "Salome" appears on page 21 followed by that for "Swan Lake" under the baton of Alexander Smallens with Nana Gollner and Anton Dolin in the principle roles, on page 25. Marjorie Lawrence was initially scheduled to sing the role of Salome but was not able to appear due to illness. A 5-3/8 inch high by 8-1/2 inch wide insert, printed in brown on light gold paper announces "Miss Marjorie Lawrence has been forced to cancel her appearance in 'Salome' this evening due to sudden illness. The management was fortunate enough to secure for the role of Salome, Mme Rose Pauly, who is famous for her interpretation of Richard Strauss heroines". The Hungarian dramatic soprano Rose Pauly (1894-1975) studied in Vienna with Rosa Papier-Paumgartner. She appeared in the German premiere of Kata Kabanova in Koln and went on to sing such roles as Sieglinde, the Empress and Rachel, creating the role of Agave in Egon Wellesz' "Die Bakchantinnen". She won recognition for her role as Marie in "Wozzeck" and title roles in Jenufa and Elektra, a role which she would also sing at the Royal Opera House and the Metropolitan Opera. The maverick artist and illustrator Elmer Jacobs (born 1901 or 1902) was highly influenced by the New Bauhaus and the School of Design in Chicago. A member of the 27 Chicago Designers, the Nine Illustrators, and the Society of Typographic Arts, he was invited to join the staffs at the Art Institute and the Bauhaus in Chicago, as well as a residence at Indiana University. His subjects went on to include works on the American West including works created along the Santa Fe and Oregon Trails. The music critic for the Chicago Daily Tribune, Cecil Smith, wrote the following: "Thanks to Dr. Rodzinski's staggering mastery of the score, to Miss Pauly's exceptional self-command and equally exceptional operatic gifts, and to the high merit of the other principal artists, this revival of 'Salome' was absolutely electric. The huge audience responded after the final curtain, with one of the greatest ovations Chicago has seen and heard in a decade.".
