GUEST,padgett,

I too am disappointed a little at Bob's not having been chosen, he is my favourite male voice on the circuit. But my disappointment is tempered by the joy for June's selection. She is my favourite female voice and she does more than recordings. I saw her at Warwick festival last summer and was spellbound throughout. The hair is grey now, the hands seriously deformed by arthritis, but the voice is still that of an angel, and her presence on the stage is commanding from start to finish. Eliza and Kate are good too, but not quite in June's category, for my pesronal taste. They will get there, just not yet.
I'd have been hard put to choose between the two (Bob-June), as I like them so much. But I consider the choice to be the right one - this year...
