Finally one night, after diligent study on her part, the critical moment passed without a hiss and her singing ot the aria was followed by a storm of applause. IN 1880 a Russian impressario, who came to Italy to look tor voices and wanted a young singer for such roles as Ine-z. in " L'Africaine " and The ^leen in " Les Huguenots," offered her an engagement for St. Petersburg and Moscow. There were ten or twelve roles to be learned and she had about six weeks in which to master them. But by dint... of ardu- ous study at a time when the heat in Milan was intense, she prepared herself for the en- gagement, which was continued for another season, and led to her appearance at the Grand Opera, Paris, where she made her debut as Marguerite in " Faust," having studied the role with Gounod himself. ALTOGETHER she sang seven months at the Opera, and her success there led Mapleson to present her in New York. This was in 1885. She did not make much impression on& way or the other. She sang only four or five nights and then returned to London.
