MURIEL SOTHAM was one of the earliest Midland broadcast artists. She was heard from the Witton Station about eight years ago and has been singing regularly since that time Miss Sotham has also been heard from the London, Bournemouth, and Cardiff studios. She has sung leading rôles with the Carl Rosa Opera Company, including all the principal contralto parts in Wagner's music, in which her fine voice, with its rich, deep register, is heard to full advantage.
