Etude and Rachmaninoffs Prelude

cent concert at the Queens hall,
London. She sang a program OF
Schubert, Schumann and Brahms.
The Daily Express says: 1T must be
many years since Londoners heard
such a lovely voice so perfectly man
aged. All our singers ought TO have
been there taking notes Here is
real prima donna, so attractive, so
fascinating, that one loves even her
airs and graces." The Times writes
that the clarity OF her high soprano
voice does not limit her expressive
power"
