Marvelous Purity, Freshness Strength of His Voice. and An audience of 3000 In the Auditorium at Chicago a week ago was aroused to tho highest pitch of enthusiasm by the singing of Johanna Gadski, the great dramatic soprano, who is to appear at the Marquam under the direction of Lois Steers, Monday, December 19. "Gadski demonstrated how great a purely lyric singer an operatic star can sometimes be," says the Chicago Sun day American of November 27. "From the Mozart arfa which opened to the group of Wagner that closed, she dis played her marvelous voice in all Its purity, freshness and strength, her Tiigh musiolanship, and best of all, that subtle faculty of arousing the sympathy of her audience that has given her the position in the musical world that she holds today. "The Impress of the dramatlc school was on all, and the image of Isolde and Brunnhilde was reflected throughout her method. Even in Schubert's perennial 'Haldenroeslein,' and that son? of songs of Richard Wagner, Traume,' there was the same underlying emotion and dra matic feeling, refusing to be hold down to purely lyric expression."
