Keith Falkner
Sir Donald Keith Falkner (1 March 1900 – 17 May 1994), known simply as Keith Falkner, was a distinguished English bass-baritone singer especially associated with oratorio and concert recital, who later became Director of the Royal College of Music in London.
==Early years==
Falkner was born at Sawston, Cambridgeshire.〔The core of this account is derived from D. Brook, ''Singers of Today'' (2nd Edition, Rockliff, London 1958), pp 75-78; supplementary sources are cited.〕 At the age of nine he won a place in the choir of New College, Oxford, in which there were 18 boys, two altos, four tenors and four basses, under the direction of Dr Hugh Allen. During his years as a chorister the choir sang almost all the repertoire of Johann Sebastian Bach's choral music, including particularly the motets, and also much other Elizabethan and more modern church music, and works by Palestrina, Schütz and Handel. These were usually performed with minimal rehearsal or at sight. In this period Hugh Allen laid the foundation of Falkner's technique, his breathing, intonation and phrasing.〔''Comparing Notes'', BBC Interview with Richard Baker 1991.〕
During the early part of World War I he was a schoolboy at the Perse School, Cambridge, but in 1917-19 he was a pilot in the Royal Naval Air Service, working in hazardous early aircraft spotting submarines in the English Channel.
