LOTTE LEHMANN
CONCERT TO-MORROW NIGHT Lotte Lehmann, affectionately known to her countless admirers as “ geliebte Lehmann,” is not only a famous operatic artist, but a Lieder singer famed as one of the greatest exponents of the art song. Her appearance, and her exquisite vocal art leave an indelible impression in the minds of concertgoers, and her concert in the Town Hall to-morrow night is being eagerly awaited. Associated with Lotte Lehmann during this tour will be Paul Ulanowsky, solo pianist and accompanist. To her public Lotte Lehmann is a statuesque woman of gracious bearing, whose smile never fails to _ win their unswerving admiration. It is dhly offstage, surrounded by her friends, that Madame Lehmann sheds this dignity and becomes her simple fun-loving self. Vivacity and a lively interest in other people ’ are her outstanding social graces, though, if the truth were told; she does not care for society in its more formal aspects. Even though her home must move with her some 10,000 miles during a year Madame Lehmann insists on
keeping it intact, , and her pets alwaya accompany her in her world-wide travels. She, possesses the typical genius for creating a friendly atmosphere in even the most austere hotel suites, and brings a Continental air of warmth and hospitality wherever she goes. As soon as she unpacks her precious household articles the strange rooms take on a personal warmth and the apartment bears the unmistakable stamp of the charming and'gracious artist who lives there.
