  1. New series started on R4.

    The first is an absolute classic - Waterloo Sunset.

    What a song. What an amazing song. Sheer beauty and genius.

    Good program too - worth listening to if you like analysis and stories around the songs.

    This song makes me feel sad :( it's not a very happy song! It's a bit depressing.

    Can we have a happy song? I like happy songs :)

    Poking around on Youtube in the early hours today,looking at hinges, & how to forge Stag hinges, & it came up with Hinge & Bracket:rolleyes:, saw them several times live many years ago, brought back memories, but comedy aside, few peeps realise how good Hilda was as a mezzo-soprano, up there with the best.



     
  4. Mezzo-soprano: "...a female singer with a voice pitched between soprano and contralto."

    Female? :rolleyes:

    OK, Patrick Fyffe aka Hilda Bracket, he had a voice classed as Mezzo-soprano range,so he was then a male contra tenor with a vocal range equal to a female mezzo-soprano, which would put many female mezzo-soprano to shame, NOW is that clearer for you...:rolleyes::p

    And it's hard to belive that Alessandro Moreschi the last castrato died in 1922.
