Miss Winifrede Repp
MISS WINIFREDE REPP

    Miss Repp is a singer of "pure lyric voice and exquisitely charming personality," peculiarly fitted to the line of work which she will carry on at the Horner Institute of Fine Arts, viz.: the coaching of singers in the repertoire and diction of French and Italian song.
     During a long period of serious preparation for a conventional singing career, Miss Repp has been a student of these two languages and has found her chief success in recital programs of a national character.  She has conducted an exhaustive search for novelties in the French and Italian literature.  

Her repertoire now embraces several complete programs of songs rarely or never heard in recitals of the day.Miss Repp was a long time pupil of William Whitney in Boston.  She lived several years in Rome and Paris and studies singing and diction with Adelina Pettini, court singer to the Queen of Italy, Jeanne Cheron and Elizabeth Thouvenot, both from the Sorbonne in Paris.

MUSICAL LEADER, FEBRUARY, 1915

     "A delightful young singer and one of much artistic merit is Miss Winifrede Repp.  Her voice is one of pure lyric type.  Beside her voice, Miss Repp has an exquisitely charming personality which she uses to excellent advantage in her public performance.  In a recent recital she sang a long and exacting program from the Italian, French and English with such telling effect as to mark her for no mean place in the artistic world of the future."
