Her inter- pretation and poise were charm- ing. Their audience was highly pleased with the perfect blending and balance of the artist’s voices in the duets. Their quality of blend of tonal color, was outstanding, not usually attained in duets by women. Encores were demanded at the close of each group of songs and the artists gracefully responded. The piano accompaniments by Mrs, Charlotte C. Elkins were beau- tifully done and the excellence of her interpretations to the moods of the artists gave a perfect back- ground for the vocalists.
