She was soloist for three ‘consecutive seasons with the Pittsburg Symphony Orchestra and later with the equally famous Pitts- + she was received with ovations. “She was repeatedly encored,” says one metropolitan daily, “as many as four and five times before audi- ences showed any mercy.” Miss McCormick has a voice as high as any soprano now before the public—sings high “E” with per- fect freedom, trills and does the most difficult coloratura passages with astonishing ease and grace.
