The Four Singers first performed together in October, 1936, since when they have given numerous recitals, both in concert halls and on the air. As a combination they excel in early English music but have an all-round repertoire.
Nellie White, the soprano of the combination, studied under Miss Carrie Tubb, and Fox Strangways said of her that 'her incisive quality does for a madrigal what Elisabeth Schumann 's does for an opera'. Joyce Gayford, the contralto, studied at the Royal Academy of Music, and has conducted the choir at the Leith Hill Festival.
Of the two male members of the quartet Reginald Forwood, the tenor, was a boy chorister at Canterbury Cathedral, thereafter studying at the Royal College of Music. The baritone, Frank Keyte, sang in the choir of a City church, studied at the Royal Academy of Music and is now a lay clerk at Rochester Cathedral.
