CLARA CLEMENS
Seven Historical Recitals Illustrating The Development of Song
CLARA CLEMENS HAS BEEN CHOSEN FOR THIS EPOCH-MAKING OCCASION BECAUSE SHE HAS EVERYTHING THAT GOES TO MAKE THE IDEAL INTERPRETER OF CLASSIC AND MODERN SONG LITERATURE. “SHE IS AT HOME IN EVERY MOOD AND MANY STYLES,” AS THE NEW YORK EVENING POST SAYS.
CLARA CLEMENS WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR A LIMITED NUMBER OF REPETITIONS OF THE SERIES FOR CLUBS, COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES. IT OFFERS A SINGULAR CHANCE TO FOLLOW THE GROWTH OF THE LYRIC IMPULSE PRESENTED WITH OUTSTANDING ARTISTRY.
NEVER BEFORE HAS SUCH A SERIES BEEN GIVEN. TO CLARA CLEMENS HAS COME THE UNIQUE HONOR OF BEING INVITED TO GIVE SUCH A SERIES IN MAY, 1922, IN MUNICH.
IN A COUNTRY WHERE THE SINGING OF SONGS HAS PREEMINENT EXPONENTS AND AN ENLIGHTENED AND HYPERCRITICAL PUBLIC FOR THIS RARE AND DIFFICULT ART, IT IS REMARKABLE THAT TO AN AMERICAN AND THUS TO AMERICA SHOULD BE AWARDED THIS TRIBUTE FOR ARTISTRY IN THE HIGHEST DEGREE.
