(Anne Pimlott Baker, ODNB), is perhaps best known for her hugely-popular performances accompanied by nightingales, first broadcast from her Surrey garden on 19 May 1924, one of the BBC's first live outside broadcast recordings and a tradition she continued for the next twelve years.A musical prodigy, at the age of twelve she won a cello exhibition to the Royal College of Music, making her debut at the Queen's Hall with Henry Wood in 1907, as noted in her diary here, and embarked on a busy solo career undertaking tours of Europe, North America and the UK. She became a good friend of Princess Victoria after playing to Edward VII at a dinner party, and visited the Royal family at Sandringham. Her illustrious career embraced many 'firsts'; she was the first to perform several important works on the cello, in particular those of Frederick Delius, who wrote his double concerto of 1915 for her and her sister, the first to make standard recordings of other pieces such as Elgar's cello concerto in 1920, conducted by the composer, the first woman cellist to play at Carnegie Hall and the first British cellist to enjoy an international reputation. She was much admired by, and friends with, composers such as Delius, Elgar and Arnold Bax, who all wrote for her. This archive was used in compiling her autobiography The Cello and the Nightingales edited by P. Cleveland-Peck, 1985.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
