The brief flame that was Ferrier has no match on any stage. Devoid of sexual appeal, she inspired fierce ardour. Utterly English in style and ethic, she captivated Bruno Walter and the Vienna Philharmonic and remains, for many, the paramount Mahler singer. Her late Brahms songs have an ethereal beauty.
A telephone operator from Blackburn, Ferrier enjoyed barely ten years of glory, from a wartime debut at a National Gallery lunchtime concert to her death of cancer in 1953, aged 41, having collapsed while singing Euridice at Covent Garden. No English contralto matched her resonance in modern times: she was the last of a line.
That was part of her allure - a nostalgia for the golden age of Victorian oratorio allied to egalitarian admiration for a girl who came from nowhere and coped heroically with adversity. But there was another aspect to Ferrier. At a time when British composers were adapting folksongs in symphonic settings, she sang the people’s music straight from the heart in a style that evoked an arcadian, pre-industrial idyll. Unaccompanied, on 10 February 1949 in Decca's West Hampstead studio she enshrined on disc our greatest fishing song and a dozen others that would never be heard again in their natural context.
