Acclaimed Him Openly Lawrence Tibbett,.the famed baritone, who will be heard on Friday, May 10th at the Municipal Auditorium, Verdun, has sung before kings and has made friends of those same monarchs.Although he is and has always been a great favorite with the American public, Mr, Tibbett has given evidence of holding the interest and regard of several reigning Kings and Queens of Europe, as well.Not until Mr.Tibbett was firmly established as a leading concert and operatic artist, did he venture a European tour.A few years ago, he acceded to requests which he had been receiving for so long, and embarked upon a seven months\u2019 tour of the capitals of Europe, It was at the height of the brilliant London season that Tib- bett made his London debut at the Covent Garden Opera House.The opera was \u2018La Tosca\u2019 in which he plays the insidious aristocrat, Scarpia, one of his most vivid characterisations, The first act was internationally broadcast, and Tibbett received commendations from some members of the royal family upon the performance.At another Covent Garden performance that season, he distinguished himself in the world premiere of Eugene Goosens\u2019

performance.Swedish Monarch Following the Covent Garden season, Mr.Tibbett, invited to sing at the Stockholm Grand Opera in Sweden, was received like visiting royalty, King Gustav of Sweden attended his first performance, and the music-lov- ing King invited him for a personal audience afterwards, to his box.A few days later, Tibbett was again summoned to the King, who personally decorated him with his medal of arts, a distinction rarely accorded a foreign singer.When King George and Queen Elizabeth of England came to the United States on their good-will tour, the President asked Mr.Tibbett to sing for the royal couple at the White House.AL the official reception given by Mr.and Mrs.Roosevelt, Mr.Tibbett's singing was received with acclaim, and afterwards he was presented to the King and
