On Sunday 28 April 2013 I spoke to Clare Marshall about Webster Booth and Anne Ziegler, and my book
SWEETHEARTS OF SONG: A PERSONAL MEMOIR OF ANNE ZIEGLER AND WEBSTER BOOTH on her delightful and long-running programme "Morning Star" on
Radio Today Johannesburg 1485 - RADIO THAT DELIVERS
One of the songs played during the broadcast was:
THE MERRY WIDOW WALTZ: Franz Léhar
This book is available online as an ebook and a paperback at
my book store on Lulu.
I have also had some copies of this book printed locally in wire binding and it is available to
South African readers only at the very reasonable price of R140 (including postage).
If you live in South Africa and would like a copy of this book, please contact me at
duettists@gmail.com, giving me your email address and I'll give you further details about it.
I have also created a miscellany of
Sweethearts of Song... and Pamela Davies' book,
Do You Remember Anne Ziegler and Webster Booth? previously published on Lulu:
On Wings of Song by Jean Collen and Pamela Davies
On Wings of Song is a combination of two books already published on
Lulu: Sweethearts of Song: A Personal Memoir of Anne Ziegler and
Webster Booth by Jean Collen and Do You Remember Anne Ziegler &
Webster Booth? by Pamela Davies and Jean Collen. This
miscellany is a memoir about the famous British duettists, Anne Ziegler
and Webster Booth by two people who knew them well. Jean Collen studied
with them, acted as studio accompanist to Webster Booth in the sixties
and remained friends with them until their deaths.
Pamela Davies was a
teenage fan of the couple in the 1940s, and began corresponding with
Anne Ziegler in the late 1970s when Anne and Webster returned to the UK,
and became a good friend.
