10 min. in 2 – Leaving out of consideration the high note she manages to strike in singing “Last Rose of Summer” this woman has no particular claim to extra consideration as a vocalist, and she was completely overshadowed by Miss Taylor. Madame Helena’s voice is thin and metallic, without a warm note in it, and her imitation on the violin was almost “dinky”. I had no trouble with her Manager whatever. He has been around here with a subdued manner all day. I might say that she was exploited more than she will make good for, however.
