"When I sing, I don't want them to see that my face is black. I don't want them to see that my face is white. I want them to see my soul. And that is colorless." -- Marian Anderson

God looks on the heart and not on the face...And Marian is certainly beautiful, and she could not hide that beauty even if the world judged her with that black skin and set her differently from the white-skinned racial bigots who only appeared inferior when they heard her angelic voice.And shame to the daughters of the American Revolution for refusing her to sing in their turf.Marian is remembered and enshrined in many people's heart... and the DAR-forgotten in utter oblivion.

Excellent performance of the Rhapsody for alto.Was it Toscanini who said she was The Century's Voice?
-
She recorded this work three times. She first performed it with Dr. Bruno Walter and the Vienna Symphony Orchestra, learning the music a few days before the first rehearsal. At the second rehearsal she had no need for the music, she had completely learned it at that point. This information is from Allan Keilor's biography of Anderson.

Wonderful Marian Anderson, I had heard her name of course, but never actually heard her. Thanks a million, a revelation. Did she sing Brahm's Four Serious Songs? I can't imagine she could have missed them, they would be perfect. Hopefully she recorded them too. Thanks thanks thanks

A great singer, and a fine lady. Put this into google,
Marian Anderson: A Life in Song, and you will see some fascinating clips.

Many thanks, Ecosse99, I got all the pictures from Penn. University and Mrs. Nancy Shawcross accepted my uploading on Youtube. It's the main site for those who love Marian Anderson !
