January 24. 1835 the last Opera from Vincenzo Bellini „I Puritani“ premiered in Paris. Here we see a very rare original castlist from The Metropolitan Opera. Only one performance was given for the opening of the MET at October 29. 1883 and then the next performance was 35 years later at February 2. 1918. Very curios.

“Signor Kaschmann was apparently laboring under the idea that Don Giovanni was a tragic hero. There was none of the reckless dash and insouciance of the libertine about him. He was buried in a mood of unbroken gloom. His vocal work was correct and occasionally effective.” (x)
