About this book
What Every Singer Should Know is a book by Millie Ryan, copyrighted 1910. The table of contents lists Chorus Singing, Stage Fright, The Accompanist and Selecting a Teacher, among others. The introduction says the book is not for the purpose of instruction in singing, as singing is an art which cannot be taught from book or correspondence.
The text says that when you hear a great singer, you should think of the obstacles she must have overcome in reaching her position of excellence. The text says Adeline Patti was asked how she preserved her charm and replied I keep my temper. The text advises that the thoughts of a pupil should be advance, not retreat, and to avoid the teacher who advances theories and mechanical contrivances.
