Described by the Daily Mail, following her death, as "The singer who stirred the world more than other artists of her time", Kathleen Ferrier proved to be the most significant British female singer to emerge after the end of the Second World War. Throughout her professional career she sang songs by British composers and settings of British folk-songs in recites and broadcasts. The sincerity and poise of her performance of Blow The Wind Southerly are such that it has become her 'song' to her many admirers.
