Brilliant exceptions this season to the catalog of past disasters; months of unprecedented prosperity; Strakosch’s good, but not very strong company, other than Miss Nilsson; numerical strength and great ability of Carl Rosa’s company; strong support he has received from the public; proof that New Yorkers are willing to cooperate with any manager who offers them something worthy of their attention; new leaf in opera history; brighter musical prospects than ever before.
