Her work with the St. Louis Symphony Society was a great triumph. For the first time in many years a singer from this city was chosen to appear as soloist at the regular concerts. During the Louisiana Purchase Exposition she was engaged by the Scranton Oratorio Society of Scranton, Pennsylvania, to sing the soprano role in Felix Mendelssohn's Oratorio, "Elijah", at the concert given by them in Festival Hall in 1904. Epstein was the only St. Louis singer engaged for the concerts given during the fair, most of them coming from Chicago and New York. The soprano role in "Elijah" was a difficult one, which she rendered amazingly well. Many unique programmes were rendered by Epstein in connection with Mrs. C. B. Rohland's lecture recitals, and unquestionably some of the most difficult and interesting works of the old and modern composers were presented by these two artists. Compositions by Jean Sibelius, Johann Strauss I, Claude Debussy, Wolff, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Mily Balakirev, Anton Rubinstein, Alexander Borodin, Mikhail Glinka, Bachmetieff, Modest Mussorgsky, Alexander Dargomyzhsky, were presented to the public, and beauties of these works brought out in masterly style. Epstein was the first singer in America to give an entire recital of the works of Sibelius, the great Finnish composer. The two women prepared a pretentious programme of modern Italian music given in various cities during the season of 1913-14. Rohland was a recognized authority on musical data and was closely identified with the development of music in St. Louis. Her lectures were excellently prepared, instructive, and her sympathetic artistic accompaniments on the piano a great help to the singer. She was the director of the new Choral Society which was organized in St. Louis for singers only, the object of the club being to do strictly choral work. Rohland was a resident of Alton, Illinois, but made weekly visits to St. Louis for the purpose of directing musical societies. The Alton public had brought before them many of the leading orchestras, soloists and best musical talent of all countries through the influence of Rohland. Sadie Kuttner Epstein was the wife of Abraham I. Epstein (1858-1929), of the Beethoven Conservatory, with whom, from 1879 to 1924, as organist and choirmaster of St. John's Methodist Church and the Temple Shaari Emeth, she sang many years.
