LEONORA ALLEN WITH

cellent soloist Debutante In
Musical Circles of Chicago.
Among the hundreds and more of
sopranos singing in this country it is
difficult to imagine that there should
be any difficulty in finding any number
of sopranos who could fill the require
ments necessary for a sololBt appear
ing with an orchestra, yet such is the
case. Mr. Ileighton, manager of the
Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra,
which Is to appear here on May 25,
discovered this fact when trying out
applicants, and while he heard many
beautiful voices, he nlBo discovered a
great lack of experience, a quality
which Is so essential In a singer about
to make a tour of eight weeks with
an orchestra, during which time the
soloist Is not only called upon to sing
concert arias, but also the various
oratorios. Mr. Helghton finally found
such a soprano in the person of Miss
Leonora Allen, a young American art -

gagements. Miss Allen has had con
siderable experience In both the con
cert, operatic and oratorio fiejd. One
of her most important and recent en
gagements was with the Apollo Club
of Chicago in their concert of Febru--axy23d,Yhen
they gave Elgar's new
work, "The "Music Maker," and
Dvorak's "Stabat Mater." The other
artists assisting were Miss Mildred
Potter, contralto; George Harris, Jr.,
tenor, and Gustav llolmquist, baritone,
the Chicago Symphony Orchestra fur
nishing the accompaniment. Eric
Delamarter, critic for the Inter-Ocean,
writes of Miss Allen's work as follows:
"Miss Allen was practically a debu-
tante in these cljrcles. Her -tone Is of
beautiful timbre, pure and clear. Her
phrasing and her technical feats gen
erally, proved. reaLsklll. Her success
addB another soprano of great promise
to a band none too numerous."
Maurice Rosonfeld, In the Examiner,
says, In part: "Leonora Allen, the so
prano, made a very successful debut
with the Apollo Club. Sho has a high
soprano of. flno quality and sang her
music with distinction."
