Cousin of Natzke
MARIE LEECH (soprano), who will be contributing to 1YA’s evening programme on Saturday, September 28, is a young singer who has been making impressive progress re-
cently. It will interest many to learn that she is a cousin of Oscar Natzke, the New Zealand bass, but she does not need to content herself solely with sharing the celebrity of her famous relative. Marie Leech has already taken several prizes at the Wellington Competitions, including a first in the vocal solo under. 18, and seconds in the-Boosey
Ballad and Radio Vocal solos, and she received special mention from the adjudicator, John T. Leech. Recently she gave auditions to Heddle Nash and Roland Foster, both of whom predicted a brilliant future for her, given proper tuition.
