FRIEDA HEMPEL
“To my dear friend and teacher, Delia Valeri, with deepest appreciation from
Frieda Hempel.”
My Bear Mme. Valeri: Let me express to you my sincerest thanks for your excellent work on my voice. 1 believe that every broadminded artist, no matter how great, should realize the need of constant guidance and advice by a capable teacher in order to handle the delicate organ of the voice properly and prevent the development of undesirable or harmful habits. With these ideas in my mind I placed my voice in your hands with the most satisfactory results. I am now happy and take pleasure in giving you the present testimonial of my appreciation and everlasting gratitude.
Frieda Hempel.

CLARA CLEMENS GABRILOWITSCH
“To my saviour, Mme. Valeri, in desperate gratitude. Whatever lies in the voice will be discovered and developed to its fullest beauty by this master of technique. With warmest friendship.”	Clara Clemens.
Dear Mme. Valeri:
I want to express my admiration to you for accomplishing such an extraordinary change in my wife’s tone production. You have succeeded in liberating her from so many technical difficulties and her high notes and low notes ring out now without a trace of effort, and the quality is always mellow and velvety. It is almost unbelievable that such a radical change could have been accomplished after only three months’ study uhth you, and this certainly is convincing proof of the excellence of your method. We are both most deeply thankful to you.
Ossip Gabrilowitsch.
