    The six opera singers in this series likely were in the news in September 1919. "The Metropolitan Opera Company last night made public its prospectus for 1919-20, which is being mailed to subscribers this week. "Seventy leading singers are announced of whom fifteen are new. The additions are six sopranos ... Edna Kellogg ... five contraltos ... Gabriella Besanzoni. "Among the singers ... are ... Adamo Didur, Millo Picco, Margaret Romaine ... as well as others of those heard in former years on Broadway" [i.e. Mary Ellis]. – The New York Times, September 22, 1919

    "Millo Picco (Baritone) (Torino, Italy 1888 - ?) Probably he made his debut in Italy, but soon went to USA to make a career there. In USA he appeared in Vitaphone movie ‘’Cavalleria rusticana’’(1927) as a partner of Beniamino Gigli." forgottenoperasingers.blogspot.com/2012/10/millo-picco-ba...
