1London Guardian,
Just at the, end Of the last summer
season In LONDON there appeared a
young American singer who, even by
musical critics jaded with plethora
Of concerts. was at once recognized as
an artist OF very exceptional attain
ments. Mr.. Herbert Witherspoon comes
back to US again this year at the
height of a crowded musical season,
and again the inevitable result is that
il, the rush and hurry Of concerts he
attracts far less attention than his no.
table powers deserve. After hearing
his song recital last Thursday. we
see no reason for, retracting any of the
lavish euIogy that We bestowed upon
him. in this column on his first London
appearance. On the contrary. he seems
10 US, If anything. to have gained in
versatility. in the power Of adapting
his fine vocal organ to the emotional
or dramatic requirements of the songs
he interprets. This. for bass singer.
is particularly difficult task, for the
heavy and sombre character of his
voice Lends itself only too easily to
sonorous monotony. Mr.. Wither-
spoons voice is q genuine bass. OF
magnificent richness and resonance.
and through ali its compass admirably
produced; but he has it under COM
plete control, and he never INDUCES
in the luxury of displaying its beau
ty and power for their own sake with
