Ruby Helder
Ruby Helder (March 3, 1890 – 1938) was a British opera singer known for her powerful contralto voice. ==Early life and family== Helder was born Emma Jane Holder in 1890 in the Easton district of Bristol. Her father, Thomas, a dairyman at the time, became landlord of a nearby public house where a young Helder would sing to entertain the regulars. Helder's musical range—from C3 to C5—attracted attention from an early age.〔http://www.contraltocorner.com/1/category/ruby%20helder/1.html〕 She soon began formal music lessons, at which point she changed her name to avoid confusion with a classmate. Her aunt, who was housekeeper to the music hall star Harry Lauder, made arrangements for Helder to train at the Guildhall School of Music with Charles Tinney. Helder also later trained with Charles Santley. Santley described her voice as a "natural, pure tenor voice of great beauty and power."〔Patricia O'Toole, "Why Don't I Feel Included in these Musics, or Matters" in ''Praxial Music Education : Reflections and Dialogues: Reflections and Dialogues'', p. 302.〕
