f Kipnis Even 'Dreams' Opera L (C vntinued from pac/c mu’) I to be financed partially by the government of the city where I it was located, but the response of the individual citizens would r warrant such a move.” S. F. LEADS WEST Citing the San Francisco Opera company as an example of his wish he said, “It is one of the best in America, and cer tainly has lead the way in making opera popular in the West. There is no reason why other cities could not do likewise.” The bass-baritone sang with the San Francisco company before joining the Metropolitan Opera company. The shortage of opera companies in America, Kipnis said, has limited the repertoire of many American opera stars. “When I came to this country in the early “twenties” I had a reper toire which included more than 200 operas besides individual songs,” the Met star continued, “but I have found that the Metropolitan usually presents only 30 different operas at the most each season and these are repeated year after year.” KIPNIS TOURS WORLD m Various tours of the operatic star have taken him to every country in the world with the exception of China and Japan. He has covered South America extensively, and until four years ago was accompanied by his wife and son when he made the tours. Travel conditions during the war put a stop to this, and since 1940 Kipnis has not left the states. During the war he gave concerts for servicemen. Accompanying Kipnis on tour is his pianist, John Hopper. Hopper appeared at McArthur court in Fall ’45., when he was the accompanist for the “Footlight Favorites,” a group of four Metropolitan stars.
