  • I live not 15 minutes from Kaths birthplace and her memorial garden, I visit them often, how lucky am I?

  • Both Miss Ferrier and Dame Baker are so out of reach for the listener these days, it's difficult to describe in words how EXTAORDINARY this style of singing is. I am so happy that YOU TUBE is including some of these bi-gone day wonderful singers. Just who do we have today who could come close to this standard of beauty...Where are they? All seem to want to be screeching sopranos! SORRY!

  • Une vraie magnifique voix de contralto aux inflexions émouvantes .

    Superbe !

  • Certified Intergalactic!

  • From someone who won a piano contest and then 2 years later, not the usual 10 for a a trainee, is apearing with Bruno Walter at Glyndbourne, a remarkable woman, and a treasure for people like us who appreciate music, submitted from an ill-educated, council house kid who realised there was more to life and luckily, found it.

  • Malgré les défauts de l'enregistrement , c'est la version d'Orfeo la plus profonde et la plus bouleversante de Kathleen Ferrier. Dommage qu'il manque le reste.

  • @wefond what is so pleasant is the warmth is the darkness, the sound of free throated, tongue relaxed singing with maximum pharyngeal lift.

  • Her singing is so completely without signs of technique. Emotion put to music. I appreciate her dark sound more and more with each passing decade.

  • @tetrazzini This version is very fine. Are you also acquainted with the version by Janet Baker?
