ISS CLARA STANDISH LORING, a young Southern girl, 
made her North Shore debut at a musicale last 
Saturday afternoon at “The Moorings,” the home of 
Mr. and Mrs. William A. Tucker on Norton’s Point, 
Manchester. A representative gathering of people from 
Boston, New York and other sections of the country, 
filled the beautiful rooms. Mlle. Germaine Cossini of 
New York, who is spending the summer in Manchester 
with Dr. and Mrs. E. R. Campbell, also sang. She is 
a pupil of -Mr. Arthur Alexander of New York and 
Gloucester, who was at the piano. 
The cool green and white music room, with its clus- 
ters of pink and red roses, made a most suitable place 
for the young girl to enter her chosen profession. Miss 
Loring is only nineteen and showed all the charm of 
youth when she came into the room. She wore a short, 
modish little dress of soft gray silk with a touch of rose 
in the trimmings and had a large pink rose in her girdle. 
Her hair was done low and in the most simple and 
girlish manner possible. She charmed all by her sweet 
and unaffected air and all were delighted and surprised 
that one so slight and young had such a voice, possess- 
ing a high and ringing tone and a wonderful carrying 
quality. Her expression and breathing were noted with 
pleasure by some of the music critics present. Her 
selections from Rossini were given in the most fascinat- 
ing and happy manner. By request she sang Madam 
Butterfly in English and gave a dainty little “I Love 
You” as an encore. At the close of the program she 
and Mlle. Cossini sang a duet. Miss Loring recently 
sang before Impresario Pallaco of the Metropolitan and 
his enthusiasm was so great that he wanted to give her 
an opportunity to sing at the Metropolitan the coming 
season. Mr. Otto Kahn has said that she has a voice 
that should give her the position of leading American 
prima donna of the operatic stage. She was given the 
first scholarship in the proposed school for opera in 
Paris, but this failed to materialize, owing to the war. 
She is booked to make her debut on the operatic stage 
in Vienna immediately following the war, and also to 
sing in Covent Garden, London. An engagement for 
the coming season with the Havana Opera Company is 
being considered by Miss Loring.
