Sigurd Nilssen
To Teach Here
When Sigurd Nilssen. bass bari
tone of the Metropolitan Opera
company, joined the school of mu
sic faculty, it meant his return to
his native state.
A native son of Oregon, Nilsson
studied in Paris before his debut
with the Monte Carlo opera com
nanv, and his later performances
in Germany, Austria, and the
British Isles.
Tall and commanding in ap
pearance, the Norwegian singer
was named by the New York
Evening Journal as “an artist
who represents all that Is best
and finest in musical life, in this
country. His sincerity and con
scientiousness, his intelligence,
temperament, and imagination
have united to make him a most
exceptional concert artist.”
The new professor of voioe will
first be introduced to University
students when he sings at the
Webfoot picnic August 20 at
.Tantzen Beach He will take up
’'os teaching duties here in Sep
tember.
Born in La Grande, Nilssen
makes one of his few returns to
the west coast this year to teach,
for since his debut in 1922 for
the Monte Carlo opera company
he has spent most of his time in
the east.
Hartwio, Kraft on

Dean Kratt, one year veteran

dent Donald M. Erb for member
