SELECT CONCERT SOLOIST
BY PHONOGRAPH RECORD
High Tribute to HuIda lashan-
ska, Known in WaShinuton,

For the first time in musical his
tory, SO far as is known, a singer has
been chosen as the chief soloist at a
concert OF prominent New England
singing club solely Oh the favorable
Impression her voice made upon the
members as revealed by 4 photograph.
The singer Is Hulda Lashanska
who was selected by the exclusive
and capable Mems Singing Club Of
Beverly, Mass. as the soloist Of its
concert OF November u after the
members of the organization had list
ened TO the Photographic rcproduc-
tion Of her singing Of Annie Laurie.
None of the members had ever met
the singer or heard her real voice
but the impression given by the
canned" article was so convincing
that there was no hesitancy in en-
geging her on the strength OF IT.
Washington remembers II d a
Lashanska, for she came here and
conquered her audiences completely
when Mrs. \. NJ Blair chose her from
group Of young singers in New
York as one of the soloists for the
Rubinstein Club OF this city. The
Rubinsteiu Club. by the bye, has
unique record in having presented
many Young artists who have later
forged into the front ranks of profess
sional life in music-land.
