To the Girl Who Wants to Sing by Homer Fitts Company
In this excerpt from a Jane Woman’s Home Companion piece an experienced singing pupil explains why many girls fail, where blame lies, the kind of talent needed, and where to study to win success. The author recalls his own near failure, the need for self discipline, and the craft of memorization and practice as keys to a career. He recounts studying at London’s Royal College of Music and in Paris with Roubé on Mephisto in Faust, stressing ultimate responsibility on the pupil and consistent effort.
