Mr. Beddoe’s voice is of wide compass, at once robust and lyric in quality and absolutely even throughout its range. He uses it with rare taste, and his performance of operatic atlas is as noteworthy as his oratorio singing, while in ballads also he is an equally satisfactory artist. This artist now sings exclusively for the Victor.
