Marjorie Lawrence, the famous Australian soprano, is broadcasting for the first time in this country tonight. She comes here with the reputation of one of the biggest successes among dramatic sopranos known - to the Metropolitan Opera House in recent years.
She made her first appearance at the age of six at a school concert in her native town of Deans Marsh. At twenty she won an operatic contest in Melbourne and went to Paris to continue her studies. There she first made a name in the role of Salome at the Opera.
Despite the severe handicap of infantile paralysis, which she contracted at the beginning of the war, she has persisted in her career and recently achieved an outstanding success in the role of Isolda at the Metropolitan in New York where, owing to her physical disabilities, the complete setting was specially rearranged to allow her to dominate the scene, reclining on a couch.
Marjorie Lawrence intends to pursue her career, both on the stage and in the concert hall, and to travel in Europe and America.
From the Royal Albert Hall, at 7.0 p.m.
