We heard her singing Strauss's Four Last Songs at the Festival Hall in the mid-70s. She was wonderful. I had a lovely album of her singing Negro Spirituals but the LP was somewhat overmodulated and was not a very easy listen. She was a customer at the restaurant in Bath (the Hole In The Wall), where she was served by my future missus in the late sixties. Ms Norman was not a small lady, and she got jammed in her chair, much to everyone's amusement, including hers. That restaurant was then in its heyday, a popular eating place for the in-crowd during the Bath Festivals. Mrs Steve also served Yehudi Menuhin and Michael Tippett. Fancy that!
