Sweethearts of Song: A Personal Memoir of Anne Ziegler and Webster Booth

ByJean Collen

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Jean Collen began her singing studies with the famous British duettists Anne Ziegler and Webster Booth, in Johannesburg, when she was 17. Two years later they asked her to act as Webster's studio accompanist when Anne - who accompanied their students - had other commitments. This was the beginning of a close friendship which lasted until their deaths. The book summarises of Anne and Webster's rapid rise to fame, which is already well documented in their own autobiography entitled "Duet" (1951). The book's main focus is on their lives and careers from 1956 in South Africa, their friendship with Jean, and their "third" career after they returned home to the UK in 1978.
