JESSIE ANDREWS ZACKERY
RECITAL A MARKED SUCCESS
Jessie Andrews Zackery of New
York, coloratura soprano, received an
ovation and delighted the overflow
audience that packed the Zion Bap
tist church Monday night. Many
were turned away when standing
room was at a premium. Many were
forced to hear her from the steps
on the outside and were pleased to
catch the strains of her remarkable
voice as it penetrated the air as if
by radio. As early as 6:30 p. m.
the throngs began to pour into the
auditorium which by 8 o’clock was
crowded with an appreciative audi
ence.
Jessie Andrews Zackery, a pupil
of Oscar Saenger, has won for her
self in America a place in the front
rank without regard to race as a most
| gifted singer. Her voice is of an
extraordinary quality and range.
She sings with exquisite musical intel
ligence and is intensely charming.
Mme. Zackery has a pleasing person
ality and possesses unusual poise,
grace and dignity. Her winsome
smile thrilled the audience and she
held the vast audience of approxi
mately two thousand spellbound with
the rendition of her program of ro
mantics, classics and Negro spirituals.
Mme. Zackery opened her program
| with a group “Nina” by Pergolesi,
i “Nymphs and Shepherds” by Purcell,
I and “Care Selve” by Handel. Her
rendition throughout was flawless.
She proved a super master of musical
art in her interpretation of “Caro
Nome” by Verdi. The grand opera
group, “Du bist die Ruh,” Schubert;
“Zueignung at the Ball,” Tchaikow
sky; “A Dream,” Grieg, showed fine
ness of expression and highest merit
of voice. “Depuis le jour Charpen
tier,” brought the rich tones of her
high coloratura voice that took the
audience by storm.
Her next group opened with that
pleasing number “Blackbirds’ Song”
by Cyril Scott and three other songs
in this group carried her hearers to
realms unknown in voice. Mme.
Zackery’s last group, four Negro
spirituals, “Were You There,” ar
ranged by Burleigh; “Hold On,” Hall
Johnson; “City Called Heaven,” Hall
I Johnson; and “Everytime I Feel the
j Spirit,” Lawrence Brown, did so elec
! trify the vast audience that she was
compelled to give three curtain calls
with her accomplished accompanist,
■ L 1. -1 — —I—I.1—l" . - ■■ 1 """
Andras Lindsay of New York, who is
an artist with piano and pipe organ.
Miss Lindsay played Etude in C
Minor with marvelous technique. So
overwhelming was the audience in its
approval and deep enjoyment and
appreciation of one of the grandest
programs rendered in Omaha for
many years that many requests have
been made to the management to pre
sent the young artist in a return en
gagement at the auditorium.
Mme. Zackery made this her in
troductory western tour. She hopes
to return to Europe this fall for an
other year’s study and on her return
to the states will make a general tour.
She is a real artist possessing simpli
city that enhances her to all who see
or meet her. The public of Omaha,
Council Bluffs and vicinity demon
strated a sense of co-operation that is
greatly appreciated by the manage
ment who sponsored Mme. Zackery
for the benefit of St. John A. M. E.
and Zion Baptist churches.
