Sally's higher
education started with studying for a degree in English at
Cambridge University. On leaving she went straight to the
Guildhall School of Music and Drama where she did a three-year
Associateship (AGSM) course. She then won an Allcard
Fellowship to study privately in Paris with one of her idols,
Regine Crespin. Sally then worked with several teachers in
London, including Ilse Wolf, Helga Mott and finally Eduardo
Asquez and Myra Ross, who grounded her in the Italian Bel
Canto and allowed her to sing in opera thereafter.
Throughout her years of study she supported herself by
writing and translating from French and Italian. Sally was
brought up bilingual in French and this has influenced her
work. At one time she ran a French Song class at Morley
College and she has an abiding fondness for Offenbach
operetta.
She has recorded 15 Debussy songs for an album with the Art
of Noise and there are plans for a recording of Fauré
songs.
