Subtle Clowning
AVING missed Anna Russell Sings several months ago from 4YC and been tantalised by many glowing reports of the recording, I was delighted to hear her perform (solo) a Gilbert and Sullivan opera in John Grey’s monthly record review. It was brilliant piece of subtle clowning (for in the case of Anna
Russell the terms are not contradictory), brilliant enough and subtle enough to be repeated severa] times when the recording finally reaches local stationsand not, as I found to my Cost with Anna Russell Sings, given the one performance and dropped into limbo.
