She was first taught the violin, but at fourteen it was discovered that her voice promised to be an unusual one, and she was sent to that noted teacher, Marie Loewe-Destinn, under whom her progress was very rapid. Adopting her teacher’s name for stage purposes, she was engaged for the Berlin Royal Opera when barely nineteen, and speedily became a great favorite. The singer’s international fame began with her appearance at Beyreuth in 1901. She created the réles of Butterfly and Salome in Berlin, and afterward made a notable success in London in the Puccini opera. Mme. Destinn demonstrated at her first American appearance several years ago that she was an operatic actress of rare skill, with a voice of unusual beauty ; and since that time she has sung a large number of réles with unvarying excellence. The Victor takes pleasure in offering to the musical public five reproductions of the voice of this famous singer, the numbers being chosen from the operas in which Mme. Destinn has made her greatest successes.
