VICTOR RED SEAL RECORDS
MICHAILOWA, MARIE, Soprano (Misch-ih' -oh-lah)
This gifted Russian soprano is one of the most popular singers on the Victor List, and a short sketch of her career will doubtless be interesting.
Marie Alexandrowna Michailowa was born in Little Russia, in the south of the Empire, and made her first appearance in Charkow when quite a young girl. She then went to St. Petersburg for further study, where her unusually beautiful voice quickly attracted the attention of the critics. At the close of her Conservatory studies, she was engaged at the Imperial Opera House (Theatre Imperial de St. Petersbourg), soon becoming the chief prima donna, a position which she held more than fifteen years. Her voice is an unusually beautiful and sympathetic one and of a velvety softness.

NIELSEN, ALICE, Soprano
Miss Nielsen, though eminently successful several years ago in light opera, was very ambitious and became dissatisfied with her work, feeling that she could make no further progress. She therefore began patiently to study for grand opera. Her bravery in sacrificing at it; height one of the greatest careers in light opera this woild has ever known (and this at an age when glory and adulation appeal most strongly to a young girl) and entering the struggle for supremacy in Grand Opera, may account for her remarkable rise inte prominence: within the past few years. What she has accomplished is now a matter of history, and the beautiful records she has made for the Victor speak eloquently of the wonderful progress she has made.
