Recorded Personalities In Caricature (16)
WHO IS SHE?-Born at Oporto on June 27, 1888, and of Portuguese Italian descent, she was taking lessons on the ’cello at an age when most children are blowing bubbles in the nursery. Afterwards she went to Leipzig under the patronage of Queen Amelie, and studied with Klengel. At seventeen she made her debut at the Leipzig concerts with Arthur Nikisch. Afterwards she toured Europe. The per- ‘ fection of her playing of the old masters, which has never been equalted, led David Popper in 1905, to write in her album "To the greatest of living ‘cellists, , from her aged confrere, D. Popper."
