Show Garcia's Method. Mesdames Viardot-Garcia and Mall-bran, Mall-bran, the wonderful daughters of Manuel Man-uel Garcia, who was perhaps the greatest great-est vocal teacher of all time, literally "learned In suffering what they taught In song." The discipline of the Garcia homa was extremely severe. It was said that Garcia used to beat his daughters till they screamed. The neighbors, however, did not co. fuse method with madness, and on such occasions they quaintly said : "It is only Monsieur Garcia teaching his girls to sing." Pittsburgh Dispatch. |
