If you have trouble reading the text: "When Lotte Lehmann sang Schuberts 'An Die Musik', the eminent soprano seemed to be asserting in that eulogy her own deep adoration of the tonal art. Her tones have acquired a greatly increased beauty of texture, a haunting loveliness. The silken legato, the sensitive molding of phrase, the unblemished purity of tone--the direct sure manner in which every most fleeting and subtle variation in mood and feeling was brought to compelling expression...Numerous extras were demanded by the large audience."--N.Y. Times Outside the Image: "An art that i s true and fresh and vividly human...Tender, spiritually refined, poignantly pasionate and deeply moving. Madame Lehmann lent her powers of sensuous voice, soaring musicianship and communicative glow to everything without a sign of a let-down. The applause was deafening."--N.Y. World Telegram "Charming personality...Unforgettable artistry. Madame Lehmann showered the full strangth and wisdom of her art on all her songs."--N.Y. Post "Affectionately admired soprano...The factors contributing to Madame Lehmann's interpretative mastery which were strickingly illustrated in her October recital were again persuasively and convincingly set forth. The audience responded to the exceptional demonstration of interpetative artistry with warm applause and eagerness for further singing."--N.Y. Herald Tribute |
