Although an operatic number had held the stage earlier, the audience showed its approval of Toye's classic selections unmistakably.
The double-voiced singer scored a large-sized hit. The basis of her appeal is the real musical excellence of her singing rather than any freak vocal display. When she sings in her tenor voice the illusion of masculine timber is absolute, and her soprano tones are quite as positively feminine.
