| Further Information |
"One of the conditions of the Australian Ballet adapting the Widow to becoming a ballet was that a Choir or Chorus was required to sing with the Elizabethan Orchestra at all performances. Local singers were hired and sang in each local season. I sang during these 6 performances in Canberra giving my biog the odd credit of "singing for the Australian Ballet"!! ".
