4Cincinnati Press Praises Miss Liebling.
6December 13 and 14 Miss Estella Liebling was the soloist at the Symphony concerts in Cincinnati, of which Frank Van der Stucken is the conductor. The following are comments on her singing, taken from the daily papers:
8Those who heard Miss Estelle Liebling at the Symphony Orchestra concert Friday afternoon, and again last evening, must have been convinced that this young American singer is an artist in all that the word implies. Her singing of the Bell Song, from the opera "Lakmé," by Delibes, was something of a revelation. She is possessed of a rare soprano voice, of unusually sweet and sympathetic qualities, even in its entire compass and warm in all registers. Her upper tones are a marvel in clarity, trueness as to pitch, and her technic is excellent. It would be unjust to Miss Liebling, however, to assert that her powers have reached maturity. Already an artist of ability, she certainly bids fair to rank with the most famous singers of her day.—Enquirer.
10THE SOLOIST, ESTELLE LIEBLING SCORES A SUCCESS.
12The soloist, Estelle Liebling, was a new quality and well received. She sang the Bell aria from "Lakmé" and three miscellaneous numbers—"In Waldesneinsamkeit," by Brahms; "Die Bekehrte," by Stange, and "Die Nachtigall," by Alabieff. She has a light coloratura voice, the purity of which is without alloy. Her selections were for a high soprano, and C, D and E above the staff seemed to be in her range without difficulty. She was quite equal to the demands of embellishment in the "Lakmé" aria. Her trill was perfect, her intonation absolutely sure and her portamento exquisitely turned.—Enquirer.
14MISS LIEBLING MADE EXCELLENT IMPRESSION.
16Miss Estelle Liebling, the American singer, made a success yesterday afternoon at the second Symphony concert given at Music Hall. Personally, Miss Liebling makes a good impression, even before she begins to sing, since she is devoid of mannerisms and is graceful. Her voice is of unusual range; indeed, she almost attains the topmost note of some of the most renowned singers, and in the cadenza of her aria yesterday took F in altissimo. The aria chosen was the extremely difficult Bell Song, by Delibes. The coloratura is elaborate and keeps the singer far above the range of the ordinary voice most of the time.—Commercial Tribune.
18HARRY J. FELLOWS.—The friends of Harry J. Fellows, the tenor, will be pleased to hear that he has recovered from a serious illness and resumed his tour with the Leonora Jackson Company at Wilkesbarre, Pa., December 25. Among the last concert notices of this popular artist were the following:
20When the well-known tenor appeared upon the platform friends who have observed his successes in the world of music joined with numerous admirers in giving him a veritable Chautauqua welcome. Mr. Fellows manifested his high artistic ability in his solos, and that capability of expression and style which justifies his position in the musical world to-day.—Jamestown (N. Y.) Morning Post.
22Harry J. Fellows captivated the audience with his fine tenor voice.—Ithaca (N. Y.) Daily News.
24He has a fine voice, strong, well schooled and of large range, and his enunciation is worthy of special mention.—Ithaca (N. Y.) Daily Journal.

46DATES FOR MASON & HAMLIN CONCERT GRANDS.
471902.
49HEREWITH is given a list of dates and cities and organizations and artists—pianists particularly—representing events and their environments of which the Mason & Hamlin concert grand piano is a prominent participating feature. There is a good deal to be said about this. It would be impossible to get up a list of this kind, with its associations as seen herewith, if the instrument itself were not artistic in its structure and in its responding qualities. No such a list could be created, no such a list could be gathered, no such a list could be founded—there would be no reason for such a list unless the instrument itself which is associated with it were in absolute concord and agreement with the facts and events of which it becomes a part. Furthermore, we want to say another word: The Mason & Hamlin pianos represent an advance in piano construction which is truly gratifying to every musical intelligence. They are beautiful throughout, and they give the utmost satisfaction to the scientific and aesthetic sentiment of the musical mind.

132Mr. HERMANN KLEIN has opened a studio for instruction in SINGING and DICTION —IN— ENGLISH, GERMAN, FRENCH and ITALIAN, AT 120 West 71st Street, NEW YORK.
134Mr. Klein submits the following letter from Mme. Adelina Patti—(Baroness Cederström):
136CRAIG-Y-NOS CASTLE, November 12, 1901.
138DEAR MR. KLEIN:
140I have received your letter of November 8, announcing your approaching departure for New York, and your intention of settling in that city as a teacher of singing. I think the Americans are to be most heartily congratulated, and I feel sure they will appreciate your excellent method and your great musical ability. I remember quite well studying two of Wagner's songs with you some years ago.
142Wishing you every success, and hoping to see you in London before you sail, with kind remembrances from myself and my husband, believe me,
144Yours very sincerely,
146(Signed) ADELINA PATTI CEDERSTRÖM.

179Anderson-Baernstein.
181THESE two well-known artists returned from their Western trip of three weeks last Saturday, and just in time to be pressed into service at short notice to sing "The Messiah" in New York, Philadelphia and Washington, in place of Esther Palliser and Whitney Tew.
183This ends the fall season of 1901, and proved to be the busiest of their career. During the next four months they will be heard in New York, Brooklyn, Chicago, Boston, St. Louis, Detroit, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Toledo, besides many cities where they give annual festivals.
185PRESENTATION TO E. M. BOWMAN.—In emphasis of Christmas good wishes the Temple Choir presented their conductor, E. M. Bowman, on Christmas morning, with a fine marble replica of Cipriani's well-known bust, "Il Penseroso," mounted on a pedestal of chaste design. John E. Orchard made the presentation.
187PERCY HEMUS.—This baritone continues to make friends whenever and wherever he sings, especially pleasing his hearers at the Waldorf-Astoria last week when he sang "The Minstrel Boy," by Shelley, and "At Twilight," by Nevin.
