WILLIAMS, EVAN, Tenor
The fact that Evan Williams is no longer in the land of the living makes his unforgettable records all the more valuable. Evan Williams was essentially an American product. The son of a family in poor circumstances, he was born in Ohio in 1867, and enjoyed little preliminary education. He was gifted, however, with a voice of singular sweetness, and indomitable will power. Coming to New York, he soon established himself as one of the foremost concert and oratorio singers of the day. A tour through England, the home of oratorio, added greatly to his reputa¬ tion, which was still increased upon his return to America.
An artist of the very highest attainments, he never lost sight of the human side of his art. The list of records below is fairly representative of the man. Great masterpieces of oratorio and opera are found side by side with the tender folk songs of the land of his Welsh ancestors, and with these are found the popular better-class ballads of our own day. Williams played upon his audiences with the touch of a master, stirring them with his fire, lulling them with his exquisite tenderness, and this mystical magnetic power is translated through his records so that it is preserved forever. He died May 24th, 1918.
