A Growing International Career During the following decade, Quilico was a featured performer at the world's greatest opera houses: the Vienna Saatsoper, Teatro Colon of Buenos Aires, Teatro Massimo of Palermo and The Thermes of Caracan, among others. In 1962, he debuted at Moscow's Bolshoi Theatre in a production of Rigoletto. The following year saw him perform at the Paris Opera and star in the premiere of Milhaud's oratorio, Pacem in terris, under French conductor Charles Munch. In 1966, he was invited by Milhaud to sing the role of "The Count" for the world premiere of La Mére Coupable. During Canada's centenary year, Quilico performed opposite fellow Canadians Jon Vickers and Teresa Stratas in a lavish production of Otello at Montreal's Place des Arts. That same year, he sang the lead in Stravinsky's, Oedipus Rex, at a gala celebration in Toronto, attended by the composer. |
