"Cornerways" refers to the name of the house that Rita owned in Surrey. This recording is a rare glimpse into the early study of a role, once sung in English, now to be learned in Italian. It was recorded by my Father, at our home in Surrey, so that Rita could study it without John Barker having to come to the house everytime she wanted to study. There is talking, laughter, mistakes, teachable moments and even though there are moments when Rita sings out, it is mostly sung quietly. There are even some top Cs sung quietly! It's a rare glimpse into what was and what I hope COULD be.....in the future!
