70 VICTOR RED SEAL RECORDS
Nine Records by HERBERT WITHERSPOON
The Victor Company is now able to offer to its patrons a number of fine records by one of the most successful of American bassos, whose superb work during the past concert season has deepened,the impression already made by him. Mr. Witherspoon is a singer of great intelligence, with a voice and style of unusual beauty. He has an impressive Stage presence, distinguished bearing and much personal magnetism. His voice is of ample range, exceptionally well schooled and truly noble in quality, and he isan accomplished master in the art of phrasing. 5
The difficult oratorio airs are sung in a wonderfully smooth and accurate manner, while Kipling’s exquisite verse is delivered with a pathos and intensity of feeling in the highest degree effective.
