An Original Musical Programme for Bridport Musical Club Signed by Isobel Baillie and Wainwright Morgan. Further writing to the rear in Isobels hand. Dame Isobel Baillie, DBE 1895-1983, née Isabella Douglas Baillie, was a Scottish soprano. She made a local success in Manchester, where she was brought up, and in 1923 made a successful London debut. Her career, encouraged by the conductor Sir Hamilton Harty, quickly developed, with breaks in the first years for vocal study in Milan. Baillie's career was almost wholly as a concert singer: she only once acted in an opera production on stage. She was associated above all with oratorio, becoming well known for her many performances in Handel's Messiah, Haydn's The Creation, Mendelssohn's Elijah and the choral works of Elgar. Size is 210mm x 170mm. Condition is good. Edges lightly rubbed. Folding creases and light marking. More images can be taken upon request. Ref16866. N° de ref. del artículo 027676
