Charles Hackett

4 November 1887 Worcester – 1 January 1942 New York

Charles Hackett
Charles Hackett
Hackett was born in Worcester on November 4th, 1887. 1889 is also given as his year of birth, but that's incorrect. His sister, Mabel, was born on June 7th, 1889. He had a brother Arthur (April 5th, 1884) who became a concert and oratorio singer.

Hackett studied first piano and then voice with Arthur J. Hubbard in Boston. He took part in a showcase for Hubbard's students at Boston's Jordan Hall in 1910 as Faust. He had great success and as a result sang in many area concerts.

On April 15th, 1911, he sang in Rossini's Stabat Mater in Providence's Infantry Hall together with Lillian Nordica. He was praised in the Musical Courrier:

He proved a revelation to the Providence public who had never heard him before. Not having much opportunity to show what he really could do except in the 'Cuius animam'... , he availed himself so excellently of this one solo, even to the extent of ... a daring D-flat, [that] he was immediately rewarded by the sort of applause which at once spells success.
In 1911, Hackett moved to New York City and was hired as a soloist at the St. Thomas P. E. Church. He even was hired at Carnegie Hall to sing Verdi's Requiem on December 18th, 1891 with Alma Gluck, Louise Homer and Herbert Witherspoon. While in New York, he recorded for Edison.

Still not able to sing in opera, Hackett went to Italy on September 28th, 1912. He settled in Firenze where he studied with maestro Vincenzo Lombardi.

About three years later, he was called to Pavia at the Teatro Fraschini, where in the morning of January 5th, 1915 he ran through the whole score of Mefistofele with the conductor. He was advised that the tenor Giulio Rotondi was sick and was asked to step in without stage rehearsal that evening. He agreed and was awarded other performances after a successful debut. The cast of the Mefistofele run that had started in December 1914, included: Rinalda Pavoni/Morendez, Rinalda Pavoni/Makowska, Giulio Rotondi/Charles Hackett/Aristodemo Giorgini, Angelo Riccieri/Enrico Molinari.

He was subsequently heard in several Italian opera houses, including one Teatro Rossini (in Livorno?), on 2 March 1915, as Duca (with Isabella De Frate and Adolfo Pacini) and at the Municipale (in Reggio Emilia) as Almaviva in April 1916.

His Scala debut took place on December 28th, 1916, as Wilhelm Meister (with Rosina Storchio), and he was heard at the Costanzi on March 29th, 1917, again in Mignon (with Gabriella Besanzoni and Elvira de Hidalgo). The Costanzi was then under the directorship of Emma Carelli, who, with her husband Walter Mocchi, was responsible for the summer operatic season at the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires. On the strength of his Costanzi success, Hackett was given a Colón concert.

Charles Hackett was expected to prepare for the Colón season; included in the contract were Mefistofele, Mignon, Rigoletto, Roméo e Juliette, La traviata, Tosca, Madama Butterfly, La bohème, Werther, Lohengrin, La sonnambula, Il barbiere di Siviglia, Falstaff, I pescatori di perle, and Faust. Fortunately, Hackett had studied and/or performed all of them at one time or another, but added La rondine, Lodoletta, and Buchardo's The dream of Alma to his repertory. Hackett left for Argentina on April 15th, 1917.

During his first Buenos Aires season, he married Virginia Zucchi, Brazil, niece of the famous 19th century ballerina of the same name, and also a dancer in São Paulo. They had first met at La Scala. Caruso was the best man at the wedding.

Hackett's Met debut was on January 31st, 1919, as Almaviva with Frieda Hempel and Giuseppe De Luca. Other operas he sang that season were La traviata and Mireille.

During his three Met seasons, Hackett frequently performed in concert, notably with the outspoken Frances Alda. Manager Charles L. Wagner, in his biography (Seeing stars) recounted an amusing incident relating to an early Alda/Hackett recital:

One of their first bookings was in Birmingham, Alabama, early in October of 1919. Hackett was new to Birmingham, while Alda had sung there several times in the past. Madame Alda, not known for her diplomacy, loudly expressed her disappointment over the small audience and, despite the fact that she had just been paid, berated the committee for failing to completely fill the house. The president of the concert association tactfully replied that Birmingham was the loser artistically and the association financially. "Well, after all," declaimed Alda, "nobody knows Hackett anyway." "Yes," replied the president, "but they do know you!" and disappeared through the door. What must have been the icing on the cake for Alda was the newspaper review the following day: "Without at all wishing to take away even an iota of praise due from the splendid performance of Madame Alda it was easily to be seen that Mr. Hackett carried off the real honors of the occasion, the audience receiving him with... spontaneous and genuine admiration."
Ather the end of the season in April 1921, Hackett did not renew his contract with the Met. Giulio Gatti-Casazza had booked a number of new tenors for the 1921–22 season, including Lauri-Volpi, Armand Tokatyan and Pertile, added to a roster already featuring Gigli, Martinelli, Chamlee, Orville Harrold, Giulio Crimi, Rafaelo Diaz and Morgan Kingston. Hackett considered that to be a limited exposure opportunity.

Hackett returned to Europe. In 1922, he reappeared at La Scala as Almaviva. He then sang Cavaradossi in Monte Carlo, followed by appearances at the Paris Opéra (1922) as Duca (with Ritter-Ciampi) and Roméo Wolff's book lists him as having made his debut in Maria di Rohan on March 22nd, 1917 as a comprimario.. Before leaving La Scala, he was invited by Toscanini to sing Fenton the next season. However, the number of American concert bookings that he would have had to cancel made it impossible.

In 1923, Hackett made his debut at Covent Garden. Among the more notable evenings there in which he participated was the farewell performance of Melba in 1926: Roméo to Melba's Juliette.

On 22 November 1923, Hackett first sang with the Chicago Opera as Alfredo, beginning a long association with that company which lasted into the early 1930s.

In addition to the standard repertory, he created roles in the premieres of Cadman's A witch of Salem (with Eidé Noréna), Moret's Lorenzaccio (with Vanni-Marcoux), and Hamilton Forrest's Camille (with Mary Garden).

Hackett recorded for Columbia and can be heard in Vitaphone films made in the twenties; he also sang frequently on the radio.

In 1934, he returned to the Met and sang there for six seasons, in the following roles: Roméo, Pinkerton, Duca, and Wilhelm Meister. During that period, Hackett was approached by the Juilliard School of Music to fill a voice faculty opening created by the death of Herbert Witherspoon. Hackett accepted and was soon recognized as an outstanding voice pedagogue.

Hackett had experienced some problems with his gall bladder and appendix. Although the situation did not demand immediate attention, Hackett elected surgery to eliminate the problems. For some unknown reason, he chose the evening of December 31st, 1941 for the surgery. Shortly after the operation, Hackett lapsed into shock and died the following morning.
