She is consider ed one of America's foremost young sopranos. She was born in Mankato, Minn., and, like Ma bel Garrison, her entire musical education has been obtained in this country. She has sung eight Grand Opera roles with the Chicago Grand-' Opera; was soloist with the , Minneapolis symphony orchestra In 1920 when It toured the Pacific coast; has been leading soprano at Reviria park In Chicago dur ing their midsummer Festival, imd has sung in ail the largest cities in America. The Chicago Tribune of December 31, 1922 sajHs of her concert there with the great Russian basso, Chalia- pini: "Miss Bacbeth celebrated her return by singing the name, part of ; "Lucia dt Lammermoor," a lole and a work known where- ever grand opera is a habit. She put a special noint on the oc casion by- singing- It in a most lovely manner, as beautifully as "she ever did It in past sea sons, which is. saying 'a good r , ' x V . 3 FLORENCE MACBETH deal. There is much to be said fpr the excellence - of the old time coloratura operas' when thre Is a voice like Miss Mac beth's to sing them, with R8 purity of tone. Its infallibility of nitcb. and the" lovely, youth ful quality that . has always been there since she made her first appearance ; here" some years ago." AlberU Salvi, the world fam ous harpi6t who appears In con cert at the Armory next Tues day evening, Is the fortunate possessor of what may ' be claim ed! the world's greatest harp. Quite aside from Mr. Salvi's marvelous playing on it, j this instrument is worth going miles to see. It is about six Inches taller than the largest regula tion harp and was specially con structed by the Rudolph Wurlie zer company, for exhibition-; at the Panama-San Francisco expo sition, where ' It was ; awarded first prize. After the exposition the harp was sent back, to Chi cago where it remained for a few years, when the WurliUer company presented It. to Salvi, with . the - inscription: r!The world's greatest harp to the world's greatest harpist.'. The main pedestal is beautifully carved, and embossed .with gold leaf. In the curve of 1 the neck there reposes a rare wooden carving representing a cunid. In addition to its .height, the sound j hoard is greatly enlarged, giving i the instrument t h e resonant qualUies' which" are so often! re-, marked upoa - In Mr. Salvl's re- citals. Since : this harp was not bu lit for sate, 1 no price has beeniset ;upon It, and it is prac- . tically invaluable:. Mr. Salrt has -Insured the Instrument - for , $20,000 and the .unusual care taken f n . its , transportation may be judged from1: the ' fact that it Is packed in an enormous trunk, specially, padded and a man always accompanies Mr. Sal vi on his tours whose only du- , ties are to oversee and direct' the harp's travels. . . - , ' ' ' - Mrs..
