Four years later Ckinninl was discovered by Kurt Sciiindler, the conductor of the S.'hola Cantorum. who confronted by the dilemma of a suddenly Indisposed concert soloist, was searching the studios of New York for n substitute. This discov ery landed the young lady (lie next evening on the stage of Carnegie hall, to her own amazement and, perhaps, dismay. That evening Oinnninl was dis covered by Daniel Mayer, concert Impresario, and Henri Yerbrngghon, orchestra conductor, and this dis covery was I he means of procuring her lirst siphony engagement and forty more engaL-emente .inn llmi-o. after. Thus. Dusolina Gianninl has been discovered and rediscovered, both here and In Kurope, and, probably, when she sings here at the Capitol thcnler on Sunday afternoon.
