Mario RousselMario Roussel was the unfortunate singer who created Silvio in Pagliacci, and for years it was written that it was Ancona. People who think they know everything, such as Ward Marston absolutely swore it was Ancona, and when asked why he thought so because I had a review of the premiere in my hands, answered because Moran said so. It is somewhat similar to an answer given by the late Mike Richter to an opera expert AfroPoli regarding Olivero having sung in Cavalleria rusticana: Olivero did not sing in Cavalleria rusticana because I say so, in spite of an existing picture supporting Olivero having sung Santuzza.Milano, Dal Verme, Pagliacci, on May 21, 1892 with Giraud, Stehle, Maurel, Daddi, Toscanini      Adelaide, Royal, Pagliacci on October 2, 1893 with Guglielmo Caruson, Italia Del Torre, Ciro Frasca, Fiorello Giraud, Lovell Philips Roma, Costanzi, Lucia di Lammermoor, on April 23/24/27-April 4-May 19 (Titta Ruffo instead of Roussel), 1898 with A.
