A.sN "a
Singing at Plymouth Church
Tuesday night, Marion Anderson.
! contralto, swayed an audience that
taxed the capacity of the large audi
forum. Marion Anderson is truly
great artist. To adequately describe
the perfection of her singing is an
almost unsurmountable task, but she
should be awarded a lace among
| the finest singers of ali time. Her
| sincerity, her sense of musical values
and her purity of diction make every
| given breath an artistic delight. The
simplicity of her personality makes
every phrase stand forth like the
purest gold.
| Miss Anderson's program was ar
tistically designed to give full scope
to the individual qualities of her
voice. In selection of classic and
Italian airs to Negro spirituals the
singer established herself as one of
the finest artists on the concert
stage, regardless of race or nation
alitv. age or estate. Too much praise
cannot be given William King. ac-
companist for Miss Anderson. He
gave an unusual exhibition of mu-
steal finesse His playing was
freighted with tenderness and an
understanding beyond criticism. He
is truly great.
