Answered by Madame Marchesi: A Department Devoted to the Questions of Vocal Students, Part 3

Abstract

Abstract: In 1907–1908, the Ladies Home Journal published a series of articles in which people could send questions to the famous voice teacher Mathilda Marchesi (1821–1913) to be answered in print. These articles are a rare glimpse at first-person, uninterpreted information. To the author’s knowledge, this collection of articles had not been previously republished in its entirety until this three-part series within Provenance , of which this installment—containing an exercise designed to train the trill—is the final one.
