Brains Needed m Singing
Mrs. Ed Andrews Writes Valuauls Advice for Those Who Consider
Following Music First Great Requirement Is Brains, Then There
Is Needed Voice, But That Is Secondary.
Vorcli, the man who wrote "Trovu
lore," wns once nsked an lint were the
requirements esspntinl to n great
sintrer. His answer wns: "First,
i
bruins, nnil bceond voice' Tlio old
mahler avhs in a jrent measure right.
JVo often hear it said that "so and so
is a beautiful singer, perfectly na:-
fimil, never hnd a bit of training,"
which means that the person referred
to possesses a wonderful voeal in-
struument, so to speak. Hut one
cannot play upon this instrument
l-vvith any degree of skill without tlw
rproper course of training, no moie
jthnn they could upon u great Strati
:iarins violin. The violin and the
voice each produce a divino qunlty
of tone. The artistic results depend
upon the skill of the plnycr. You
may not bo aware of the frtct, but It
is novel thelcss true thnt America,
and not Italy, is the nest in which
the famous songbirds of the world
nre hatched, and it is with regret
thnt we hnve to acknowledge thnt
K until very recently our American
ysingers hud to masniieade under a
poreigu num do plume in order to gel
precognition in the land of their birth
B Amcricn, until very lately, hns
been snobbish and imitative in her
appreciation of art. Mine. Nordicn's
real nninu is Lillie Norton. "Albnni"
Jis an Italianized pronouncintion of
'Albnny, N. Y. Just what her home
, nnme is tluMvriter is unable to st.it",
but like as not it is Mary "Jonoq
Pcregini, the faiuonus America
tenor, used to answer "present" in
i his school days when the tenchtd
called out "Johnny Chutterteii!"
And so we might go on down the H-.I
to a considerable length. We pre
Imppv to snv that this condition has
changed, It is now quite common to
&e such nnmes as "Susan AdnmV
"Gcrnldino Farrar" and "Loieo Ho
mer" in the same enst with the
greatest singers in the world, llio
American singers have at last come
into their own. This country 1m by
far the grentest market for musical
talent of any country on the world s
map. And the boy or girl who pos
sesses talent and inclination may feel
assured that if they fit themselves
for n career by a thorough musical
training they will have a profession
that they can depend upon for a
livelihood as surely as any of the
recognized professions, 'such as lnw
medicine, science and literature. Hut,
like the doctoror lawyer, they inu.it
fit- themselves. The quack in nnv
profession is in tho down-nnd-oirt
class. There are maiiy so-called mu
sicians who are only entertainers it
u very amateurish wav. High schools
and colleges arc constantly calling
for capable instructors of music. He
sides, lliero are churches in ovcr
large city who pay good salaries to
capable singers for one day's sorvicc
out of the seven- And thero is lac
concert and operatic field, whose
possibilities are unlimited
Thus far we have had to draw
Inrgcly from Europe for our in
structors and musical directors. The
reason is not that America has not
the natural talent, but thnt her so
called musicians have been satisfied
with the most superficial knowledge
of what is one of the grout profes
sions. So my advice is to boy or
girl who wish to mnko music their
life "work, go at it in earnest, and,
like the surgeon or lawyer, become
master of your profession.
