Frank Dunlop's first Festival as Director saw the first performances in Scotland for many years of this popular double bill of Menotti operas, with The Telephone, as the composer intended, acting as an introduction to his longer work, The Medium. The Festival had never presented any Menotti opera before, and all performances quickly sold out. The Washington Opera guaranteed authenticity by getting the composer and librettist, now aged 72, to direct the show as well.
