The German company will not stay at the Academy more than two weeks.  The theater has been secured for Maretzek’s company.  The new tenor, Massimiliani, is vacationing in Staten Island and preparing his roles.  The question of the price of tickets, a delicate issue these days, is still to be decided. But the music lovers will not hesitate to pay for their tickets at whatever price.
