Description
Isobel Baillie was the leading British concert soprano of the first half of the 20th century. Her style was characterised by a focussed tone, clear diction and a speech-like and natural approach to phrasing. This Heritage release showcases her artistry in repertoire with which she had a close affinity - Purcell, Arne, Bach, Handel and Haydn. Recordings date from 1941 to 1949 with a variety of orchestras, conductors and accompanists and are newly transferred.
