Good Singing
(CONSTANCE MANNING’S group of Russian songs from 1YA on March 6 was singing such as one always hopes for, but too rarely hears in studio broadcasts. The words, easy listening, were made poetry and one felt that the singer had reached the composer’s innermost meaning. Phrasing was meticulous and well-modulated. In short, this was most enjoyable music. Yet this singer, in common with the few others whose singing rises above the average, is not heard often enough. It would appear
from the programmes that little distinction is made in the engagement of artists, between those — too many of them-whose work is a constant apology, and those who have the ability and take the trouble to produce something fine.
