The Chicago Opera Company stated that music represents universal internationalism and its 1940 schedule would not drop German or Italian works. General Director Henry Weber argued operas span history, religion, and Shakespeare, and that audiences in war nations would not approve excluding art by a composer. He noted European singers stranded in the U.S. may bolster American stages, sustaining the old world influence in Chicago and New York.
