  • Description

    Heritage presents a tribute to the wonderful contralto voice of Alfreda Hodgson. During the 1960s, 70s and 80s, Hodgson was the first choice contralto for many conductors and composers, not least Benjamin Britten, and she enjoyed a highly successful career in the concert hall, and to a lesser extent, opera house. The studio recordings featured here are of repertoire with which she was closely associated, English song and the lieder of Brahms. Informative biographical notes are written by Tully Potter. Music critic Alan Blyth wrote in The Times: 'Alfreda Hodgson, the contralto, is one of those singers who have an innate ability to phrase naturally and strike the precise balance between line and expression.'
