RIP, Esther Andreas

Woke up shaking from a dream featuring a stand-in for Esther Andreas, my first voice teacher. In the dream she was deaf. When I studied with her she was blind, lame and crazy, but not deaf, whatever nasty things my father may have said. ("I'd tell somebody they could sing for $30 an hour too.")

Not completely forgotten! The Voice of Singing, Esther Andreas - New York, Carl Fischer [1970]

Requiescat In Pace, Esther. Even though you thought Ollie North was cute.
