MADAME 0TTo-ALvsLEBEN.
Tho prima Donna of the seneerfes

The name of Madame tto-Alvsleben,
though it may have an unfamiliar sound to
the majority of the American people, is one
of the best known throughout all Europe.
She was ss11rn in Dresden in 1S45. The
musical talent which she exhibited at an
early age. attracted the attention of the
Queen of Saxony, who secured her free tu-
ition at the Royal Conservatory OF Music
in Dresden. Her studies were first directed
to the piano, but the discovery of excellent
musical qualities in her voice induced her
teacher, Herr Thele to devote his efforts
to teach her the art of singing.
She was an apt pupil, and discovered so
happy dramatic talent that at sixteen
years of age she made her debut at the
Court Theater of Dresden. The debut was
success, and she entered at once upon an
artistic career In 1865 she married Max
Otto, a well-known singer and song writer
OF Dresden, but continued her connection
with the Court Theater until it was de-
stroyed by fire in 1869. She then went to
Italy, and continued her studies with Lam
peril for some time.
On the restoration of the theater she re-
turned to Dresden, and ornamented Its
operate stage until 1873 when she severed
her connection with the management in
order to accept an engagement Tor con-
cert tour, including several large festivals
in England, achieving marked success,
especially as an oratorio singer. After the
tour she returned to the stage, and from
1875 to 1877 inclusive sang at the Ham
burger Stadttheater, whence also came
Madame Pappenheim, the soloist of the
| last Sangerfest and May Festival.
From Hamburg Madame Otto-Alvsleben
was recalled to Dresden, where she still
holds position at the Court Theater, par
ticipating in nearly all the large concerts,
and often being summoned to the German
festivals in other cities One of her last
memorable performances was the singing OF
| the soprano solos in Beethovens Mass in d
at great performance in Bonn, the birth
place of the master. As to her merit, let
the following extracts from the English
| press speak:
In noticing one Of the Royal Albert Hall
concerts the London Musical World, of
December 2Sth, 1874, says: "The event of
the part, however, was the singing of Mad
anne Otto-Alvsleben in Senta's ballad from
| Der fiegende Hollender.' This finely con-
ceived dramatic aria could under no cir
cumstances have been better rendered with
greater nobility of style and purpose, and
notwithstanding its extreme length and its
manifest inapposteness in the concert
room, it was largely and persistently en-
coredn
