The great, and irreplaceable, Australian soprano, Elizabeth Fretwell, enjoyed a thirty year career on the operatic stage. Commencing as a protégée of Gertrude Johnson at the National Opera in Melbourne, through her incredible list of roles with the Sadler's Wells Opera in London to her return to Australia in 1971, Fretwell left an indelible mark in the history of opera in Australia. Her international career, especially in the UK, was profound and saw her singing some of the most important roles in the repertoire. From a radio broadcast on May 11th 1960 of Beethoven's opera FIDELIO, she sings the central role of Leonora. Here is her performance of the aria "Abscheulicher! wo eilst du hin?" sung in an English translation as "O, monstrous fiend. What brought you here?". The BBC Symphony Orchestra is conducted by Colin Davis. Elizabeth (Betty) Fretwell 13.8.1920—5.6.2006 Born Elizabeth Drina in the Melbourne suburb of Glen Huntly, Fretwell studied ballet for nine years before switching to voice. She joined the National Theatre Opera School and appeared in many wartime productions at the National’s home base in Eastern Hill, starting with her portrayal of Mrs Slammerkin in The Beggar’s Opera in 1944. She was a finalist in the 1947 Sun Aria. From 1948 until 1954 she was entrusted with soprano leads in all the National’s Opera Festivals at the Princess. She was in the Royal Performance of The Tales of Hoffmann in 1954. She also broadcast frequently for the ABC. Inevitably, Fretwell joined the exodus of Australian singers to Europe. In 1954 she sang leads for the Dublin Grand Opera Company. She undertook further studies under Joseph Hislop and in 1955 joined Sadler’s Wells. There she excelled in a wide repertoire including La Traviata, Ariadne auf Naxos, Fidelio, The Girl of the Golden West, The Land of Smiles and Peter Grimes. She returned home in 1963 as a guest artist with the Elizabethan Trust Opera Company, singing in Fidelio and The Marriage of Figaro. She made her Covent Garden début in 1965 in the title role in Aïda and in Il Tabarro. Fretwell was back for A Masked Ball, Falstaff and Boris Godounov in the Trust Opera’s 1969 season. The following year she returned to Australia permanently and joined Opera Australia where her major triumphs included Aïda, Macbeth and Jenufa. She was awarded the OBE in 1977. Fretwell’s second husband was the Australian baritone Robert Simmons.

'Bird Songs at Eventide' was recorded on 14 June 1927, with piano by Percy Kahn, violin by Marjorie Hayward and 'cello by Cedric Sharpe. It is difficult to improve upon John Steane's appreciation of the art of Joseph Hislop. 'He is a singer for whose ways and means one comes to have much affection, partly through the interaction of opera and song,' wrote Steane in 'The Grand Tradition.' As regards his records of Scottish songs and English ballads, Steane spoke of Hislop's 'tender and restrained way...varying his tone from a clear, incisive ring to a gentle mezzo voce, veiled and floated with fine control. In relation to the operatic recordings, Steane was a little less enthusiastic, but only a little. Michael Scott certainly found his singing to be clean and vigorous, with everything 'done to a high degree of competence.' Hislop was born in Edinburgh on 5 April 1884. He gained a musical education as a choirboy, but initially pursued a career in photoengraving. Ultimately, photography was jettisoned in favour of singing studies - in Stockholm, where he made his debut in 1914. He made his Covent Garden and North American debuts in 1920, and continued to sing in opera until 1934. He also made many concert tours, including to Australia. Retiring from singing in 1937, he began a teaching career in Stockholm, later continuing it in England. He died in Fife, Scotland, on 6 May 1977.
