Text Appearing Before Image: rk, where she sang atthe Academy of Music on November 26, 1883. She cameto the Metropolitan Opera House with an Italian companywhich, under the management of Abbey and Grau, gave aseries of 21 performances after the close of the Germanseason of 1889-90. She was also a member of the companywith which Mr. Abbey re-established Italian opera at theMetropolitan in 1901-02, having been engaged for the ex-press purpose of singing the part of Selika in LAfri-caine, but when the time came Mme. Lehmann had to bebrought in to make the performance possible. Thereaftershe was a familiar figure at the Metropolitan until she joinedMr. Hammersteins forces for a brief season at the Man-hattan Opera House ; but her finest success, and it was reallya memorable one, was achieved in 1895, when she sangIsolde to Jean de Reszkes Tristan at the Broadway house.Then for the first time it was possible for the reviewer toindulge in something more than praise of her beauty andperfunctory compliments on her voice.
