The warmth, the color, the life of the singer’s voice inspired us. Every tone was tinted with a beautiful feeling so that we followed the melody as one would watch the rosy clouds floating in the sky.” (Edwin Schallert, in the Daily Times). “Macbeth was in magnificent voice and her clear lyric tones were heard with delicacy and the perfect nuance of traditional rendition in the two Mozart arias. Her beautiful stage presence and charming, unaffected manner enhanced the really classic charm of her work. Later, in the ‘Hymn to the Sun’ aria she repeated her earlier triumphs.” (Florence Lawrence, in the Examiner). “Macbeth was a dainty and charming singer. Her tone was produced with authority, perfect pitch, clarity, resonance and lined with velvet. She sings with beautiful relaxation.” (Florence P. Reed, in the Record).

A SENSATION IN SAN FRANCISCO 22nd, 1922 ----־3- MARCH “The appearance of Florence Macbeth created a mild sensation. The charming singer was recalled so many times that it seemed doubtful if the concert could proceed.” (Helen M. Bonnet in the Bulletin.)

New York SAMUEL GENEEN, President !4SI Broadway “Florence Macbeth was received by junior music lovers with an enthusiasm that would have done credit to an audience sophisticated in such matters as vocal technique. Whether or not they were aware of the fineness of her artistry, they came under the influence of her personal charm and rewarded her with many recalls.” (Ray C. Brown in the Chronicle.) “When Florence Macbeth, who is that rare thing in song, a singer of florid melody who possesses a heart, ended the ‘Hymn to the Sun’ aria they applauded with tremendous persistency. It seemed they would not be denied. Then she sang ‘Charmant Oiseau’ with rare vocal purity and with just the right modicum of sympathy to rescue it from the category of display pieces.” (Redfern Mason in the Examiner.)
