Spokane, Wash., October 11, 1914. J
A well filled house greeted Olive Fremstad at the Audi-
torium, Monday night, October 5. It was indeed a happy
occasion, this opening concert of the fifth annual series
under the local direction of Mrs. H. W. Allen. The gra-
cious prima donna, with her magnetic personality and ex-
cellent voice, aroused the enthusiasm of the audience, and
encore after encore was called for. It seemed almost that
the Scandinavian numbers were sung with a little more
sympathy than the others—or could it have been art? At
any rate, these particular songs were the ones that caught
the fancy of the listeners. Assuredly Mme. Fremstad has
won many admirers in Spokane—music lovers who hope
to hear her again soon.
A reception for Mme. Fremstad was held at the new
Davenport Hotel. Saturday night, October 3, under the
auspices of the Scandinavian Societies. Mayor Hindlcy
