made by her parents in Vienna; when she professional orchestra musicians con- was two years old her parents returned | ferred upon her the unusual compliment of honorary membership, in return for her services given in aid of the society's sick fund. Mme. Juch possesses a fine stage presence, a powerful and cultured voice; her fine singing was coupled with equally fine acting. Married, June 25,

to the U. S., and made their home in N. Y. City; here she passed through the public schools, and was graduated from the Normal School in 1879; her father recognized her musical talents, but did not encourage her to cultivate them, as he was opposed to her entering the pro- fessional field. Emma Juch inherited her fine voice from her French-Hanoverian mother, and decided to pursue her musi- cal studies in secret; she studied for two years with Madame Murio-Celli, and made her début in a concert in Chicker- ing Hall; her father was among her audi- tors and he listened to her singing with surprise ; her triumph was perfect. Her father then encouraged her to pursue the study of music, and for two years she was subject to the severest discipline; her pure, strong soprano voice gained in power and flexibility. In May, 1881, Colo- nel Mapleson engaged her to sing lead- ing soprano roles in her Majesty's Grand Italian Opera in London, Eng. There she made her début as Filina in Mignon and won brilliant triumph in June, 1881; she then appeared as Violetta in Travi- ata, as Queen of Night in Magic Flute, as Martha in Martha, as Marguerite in Faust, as the Queen in Les Huguenots, and as Isabella in Robert le Diable. She sang during three seasons under Col- onel Mapleson's management, and when her contract lapsed she refused to renew it. William Steinway, of N. Y. City, introduced her to Theodore Thomas, and she accepted from this manager an offer to share the work of Nilsson and Materna in the tour of the Wagnerian artists, Materna, Scaria and Winkelmann. Mme. Juch sang alternate nights with Nilsson as Elsa in Lohengrin; she won a series of triumps in that tour. When the American Opera Company was formed she was the first artist engaged; many tempting offers were made to her, but she decided to remain with the American Opera Company; during three seasons with that company she sang in six roles and one hundred and sixty-four times ; the operas presented were Magic Flute, Lohengrin, The Flying Dutchman, Gluck's Orpheus, Rubenstein's Nero, and Gounod's Faust. During the next four or five years she was constantly before the public in festivals or orchestral symphonic concerts and the German Choral Societies, and in the Emma Juch Grand English Opera Company ; the Aschenbroedel Verein of
