Article Abstract:

The sad demise of one of the most charismatic singers of the early twentieth century, Nellie Melba, is chronicled who despite performing in one of the most competitive eras of all times always held her own against all her contemporaries. Melba was a great supporter of the contemporary music of her time, whose dulcet voice was accepted by music aficionados.
