VICTOR RED SEAL RECORDS 55 EMMA EAMES Soprano Emma Eames was born in Shanghai, China, of American parents, her father being a lawyer of the International Courts. The family soon returned to their American home in Bath, Maine, where the young Emma began the study of music—at first with her mother, but finally going to Paris, where she spent several years with Mme. Marchesi in arduous study of voice culture, dramatic action, and the French language. The result of these labors is shown in the absolute purity of Mme. Eames’ French, her beautiful phrasing, and her finished acting. Though the road to opera is full of intrigues, Mme. Eames made her way to the front by sheer talent and hard study. A pure fresh voice, flexible and expressive, remarkably good inEAMES tonation, an attractive personality, and an unbounded enthusiasm for her work were the qualities which contributed to her rapid advancement.,. Mme. Eames makes records exclusively for the Victor.
