A cheerful selection of gramophone records

Records of Joan Cross (soprano)
It seems strange that singing was only Joan Cross's second subject to the violin at Trinity College, but she changed over and so altered her career. Twelve years ago Lilian Baylis engaged her to walk on at Sadler's Wells, and little thought she had found an operatic star. Her greatest success has probably been in Mozart operas and as Desdemona in Otello.
