Excerpt from Correct Principles of Classical Singing: Containing Essays on Choosing a Teacher; The Art of Singing, Cetera
To music-lovers of mature age Max Heinrich, "Rare Max," as James Huneker has so aptly called him, needs no introduction. To the rising generation of singers, teachers, and musicians we would say that for thirty years his name has been a household word whenever the subject of oratorio singing was broached, or the classic songs of the German or English composers were the subject of discussion. For fully twenty years Mr. Heinrich was the first and foremost figure of America"s musical life in song and oratorio, and it would be difficult to name one city of musical pretensions in which he has not many times appeared and invariably aroused his audiences to the highest degree of enthusiasm by the forceful portrayal of the varied characters found in the old and the modern oratorios and music dramas, from the Passion music of Bach to the "Damnation of Faust" of Berlioz.
