SSC Presents
Noted Soprano
The story of America’s great
soprano Adele Addison, heard on
February 10 at Savannah State
College in Meldrim Auditorium,
under the auspices of the College
Lyceum Services which are under j j
the chairmanship of Dr. Coleridge
liraithwaite, may be merely one
of many “only-in-America” success
stories. But few begin so humbly
and achieve such a truly distin¬
guished pinnacle of “sheer great¬
ness” (Hume) in any of the arts, ns
the story of this petite young
singer with a composed and un¬
assuming manner and large liquid
brown eyes set in a delicately
modelled round face.
Miss Addison studied under the
eminent Boris Goldovsky, at the
Berkshire Music School in Tangle-
wood, Massachusetts, who intro- !
duced her to the opera world in
leading roles with his New Eng- j
land Opera Company. Boston’s
distinguished music critic Rudolph
Elie, who wrote of Adele Addison
in the Boston Herald said, po¬
tentially one of the greatest sing¬
ers to appear so far in America
— when she comes to Boston
a recital, you’d better plan to be
present.”
After summer study at Tangle-
wood and winter study at the New
England Conservatory of Music in
Boston under noted Felix Wolfes,
Adele Addison appeared in Boston
— for her recital debut. The music
loving public of Boston
bered, and packed Jordan Hall
overflowing, giving the young
soprano unprecedented ovations
and the highest acclaim, starting
