The inspirational story of Kathleen Ferrier, whose reputation as
the greatest lyric contralto of the 20th century is something
rarely disputed, is told here with compelling insight and
perception. Drawing on a variety of sources--from photographs,
diaries, and private letters, to the memoirs and recollections of
those who knew her best--this study charts her life from her humble
beginnings as a telephone operator in Blackburn to the height of
international fame as one of the world's leading concert artists.
Despite having no formal musical training, Kathleen worked with all
the celebrated conductors of the time, and is remembered for her
performances of Brahms, Schubert, and Mahler, as well as a handful
of operatic roles before her untimely death at the age of 41.
Enlarging considerably on many alternative biographies, this
excellent account captures the warmth, humor, and charm of a figure
whose astonishing life and career proved to be all too brief.
