It is some years since Mme. Butt was first heard in this country, but the impression she made then is still remembered. Her success in her native land and on the Continent has been very great. Scarcely a festival of importance is considered complete without Mme. Butt’s services, while her recitals in London, Manchester and other English cities invariably attract large and enthusiastic throngs. Mme. Butt, who with her husband, Mr. Kennerly Rumford, toured this country last season before sailing for Australia, has chosen four attractive numbers for her first Victor records, and these are sung in a manner which admirably exhibits the glorious tones of the artist’s voice. Liddle’s setting of the famous evening hymn will always be associated with its performance by Mme. Butt, who renders it with dramatic power and much vocal beauty, and it is undoubtedly one:of the most remarkable records of a contralto ever issued. Hlullah’s setting of Charles Kingsley’s pathetically beautiful poem is eminently suited to the artist’s lovely voice, and her rendition of this grimly realistic story of the lives of the humble fisher folk is a most thrilling one; while the two oratorio records are noble and impressive reproductions. This artist raze exclusively for the Victor. RECORDS BY CLARA BUTT BUTT Abide With Me (with Organ and Piano acc.)
