Titlu

Agnes Huntington (later, Agnes Huntington Cravath; ca. 1864 – March 10, 1953) was an American operatic singer. For several years, she received private tutoring in Europe for music, languages, and drawing.[1] She had a notable career in concert and opera as a prima donna contralto.

Early years and education

Agnes Huntington was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan,[1] in ca. 1864.[2][a] She was the daughter of Charles E. and Fannie E. (Munsell) Huntington[1] and was raised by them in New York City.[3]

She was educated at Mrs. Sylvanus Reed's School for Girls in New York City. In 1880, her family decided that she should follow a career of her own choosing. She hesitated to choose between music and art, for both were attractive to her, and she finally decided to become an operatic singer. Her rich contralto voice was inherited from her mother.[3]

Huntington went to Dresden in 1880, where she studied for four years[b] with Giovanni Battista Lamperti.[4][3] Said Huntington:—[3]

"If I had indulged in any vanity regarding my musical talent, founded upon my two years' musical instruction in America, my maestro, G. B. Lamperti, scattered it like snow-flakes on a windy wintry day, when he gravely assured me, on my vocal examination, that I at least had acquired no bad vocal habits, and that my voice was in a fair condition for rapid development. If I had much to learn, I had nothing to unlearn. I was in this respect better off than many, and there was consolation in this fact. These years of preparation were no child's play. They were years of constant and hard work, and of the many who began with me, few remained the four years. I do not now begrudge one moment I spent in the laborious study of vocal technique. The benefits I have derived from my patience and labor have been too numerous to detail."

Licențiere

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

Această lucrare este, de asemenea, în domeniul public în ţările şi zonele în care durata drepturilor de autor este viaţa autorului plus 70 de ani sau mai puţin.


You must also include a United States public domain tag to indicate why this work is in the public domain in the United States. Câteva ţări au o durată a protecţiei dreptului de autor mai mare de 70 de ani: Mexic are 100 de ani, Jamaica are 95 de ani, Columbia are 80 de ani, iar Guatemala şi Samoa au 75 de ani. Acest fişier s-ar putea să nu fie în domeniul public în acele ţări, care pe deasupra nu ţin cont nici de regula celei mai scurte durate.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
