Don Bradman’s granddaughter tops Australia’s aria charts
mainGreta Bradman, granddaughter of the greatest batsman that ever took guard, is a professional concert singer.
After studies in Wales with Dennis O’Neill, she has been working with Richard Bonynge on a debut album with the English Chamber Orchestra. Bonynge says ‘she should be singing at Covent Gardn.’
Her recording is now top of Australia’s core-classical charts and Greta is off on tour with Zubin Mehta and the Australian World Orchestra.
It’s rare for the physical world of professional sport to meet the spiritual realm of art, but when it does the confluence can be fascinating.
Watch an ABC doc on Greta here.
Ok, I have to admit I listened to the clip, thinking it was going to be your “Whatshername Boyle” or Charlotte Church ilk, and was astounded by the beautiful voice I was hearing. Such a lovely voice! Thanks for telling us about her!
