Shortly thereafter he returned to Broadway to portray Eisenstein in ''Rosalinda'', an adaptation of ''Die Fledermaus''. In 1943 he was the tenor soloist in Bach's ''Mass in B Minor'' with the Bach Choir of Bethlehem and the Philadelphia Orchestra at the Bethlehem Bach Festival. McChesney was also a repeat performer with NYC's New Opera Company during the early 1940s.
