59COUNTRYWIDE SUCCESSES FROM NEW YORK TO HONOLULU
61LOS ANGELES, CALIF.
62(Los Angeles Examiner—November 18, 1925)
63"TRIUMPH SCORED BY ANNA CASE"—By Patterson Greene
64"When Anna Case appeared on the stage at the Philharmonic last night, she walked into a tumult of applause that was almost startling. Perhaps people had forgotten that this American soprano was so beautiful. Perhaps they had forgotten—or given up hope—that anyone was so beautiful.
65"And when it became evident that her singing measured up to her looks, the huge audience rubbed its eyes, pricked up its ears and blistered its hands with applause. Rarely does an artist evoke so much enthusiasm here, and rarely does an artist so well deserve it.
66"Miss Case's voice has acquired body and color in recent years, without losing the transparent lyricism that individualizes it. Her tones are firm of texture, even of emission and flawlessly true to pitch. A certain aloofness marks her interpretations—a reserve that gives them distinction without coldness."
68LOS ANGELES, CALIF.
69(Los Angeles Daily Times—November 18, 1925)
70"Exquisite polish—finished artistry, characterized the song recital of Anna Case at the Philharmonic Auditorium last night. The audience was won before she sang a note. She is one of the most beautiful women outside of the cinema world today, and I seriously doubt if any Parisian chooses or wears her clothes as well as this American singer. She is graciousness personified."
72LONG BEACH, CALIF.
73(Long Beach Press-Telegram—November 14, 1925)
74"Miss Case possesses a voice of wonderful power and clarity which she controls with amazing accuracy. It has unusual resonance."
76PALO ALTO, CALIF.
77(The Daily Palo Alto—November 6, 1925)
78"Miss Case's soprano was rich, clear, and resonant, especially on the high notes which she negotiated without the slightest roughness. She kept the dramatic sense of the song continually to the fore in her renditions and never for a moment lost sight of the meaning of the words in following the melody. Her enunciation was remarkably sharp and distinct."
80CHICO, CALIF.
81(The Chico Record—November 4, 1925)
82"ANNA CASE HERALDED AS AN EVANGELIST OF MUSIC"
83"You are not only the greatest soprano in the world; you are an evangelist.
84"That tribute, actually paid to Anna Case, would not be judged absurdly extravagant by the audience which heard her in the National Theater last night. That pronounced spirituality manifested itself gently in the very first number, the 'Cavatina' from 'Der Freischutz'. It was intended to. It was allowed to steal over the footlights through the soft tones of the piano, for which the singer waited, while the hearers hushed. It echoed here and there throughout a program which was varied to suit all tastes if that first note of the concert were not heard."
86GALVESTON, TEX.
87(Galveston Daily News—October 25, 1925)
88"There is a peculiar, an unusual quality about Anna Case that actually does enchant. The whole, her lovely personality, her beautiful person, her exquisite voice is a combination that makes one forget all else."
90OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLA.
91(Daily Oklahoman—October 17, 1925)
92"Anna Case knows how to turn our thoughts to the art she makes of every song. No matter in what language she sings we get the content. Her sustained tone, her high notes perfectly taken, hold us with wonder."
