Fisher, Sylvia (Gwendoline Victoria)(b Melbourne, 18 April 1910; d Melbourne, 25 Aug 1996). Australian soprano. She studied at the Melba Memorial Conservatorium in Melbourne with Mary Campbell, then privately with Adolf Spivakovsky. While a student she made her operatic début (1932) as Hermione in Lully’s Cadmus et Hermione, her only stage performance before she moved to Europe in 1947. She joined the Covent Garden company in 1948, making her début that December as Leonore, and remained a member of the ensemble until 1958. Her many London roles included the Marschallin, Ellen Orford, a moving Mother Marie in the British première of Dialogues des Carmélites, Elsa, Agathe and Sieglinde, and she was compared with Lotte Lehmann for warmth of stage presence and vocal radiance. She scored a notable success as Kostelnička Buryjova in the first British production of Jenůfa (1956); she also sang Turandot, Brünnhilde (Die Walküre) and Isolde, but they were vocally too demanding so she later wisely abandoned them. After some years of retrenchment, she had a second career with the English Opera Group from 1963 as Lady Billows (Albert Herring), the Female Chorus (The Rape of Lucretia) and Mrs Grose (The Turn of the Screw); she created the role of Miss Wingrave in 1971 and repeated it at Covent Garden in 1973. When Gloriana was revived at Sadler’s Wells in 1966 she triumphed as a commanding and dignified Elizabeth I. Her final appearances were in 1973 as a powerful Marfa Kabanicha (Kát’a Kabanová) for the ENO. She always managed to convey the essence of a role through her sympathetic identification with it, most notably as the Marschallin, Lady Billows, Elizabeth I and Miss Wingrave. HAROLD ROSENTHAL/ROGER COVELL Fisher, William Arms(b San Francisco, 27 April 1861; d Boston, 18 Dec 1948). American music editor and writer on music. His early musical training was in Oakland, New York and London. He studied with Horatio Parker and at the National Conservatory with Dvořák. He taught briefly at the National Conservatory, and in 1897 became editor and director of publications for the Oliver Ditson Co. in Boston; from 1926 to his retirement in 1937 he was vice-president of the company. He gained some reputation as a songwriter and is best remembered today for setting the words ‘Goin' home’ to the melody of the second movement of Dvořák's ‘New World’ Symphony. Fisher was one of the earliest historians to recognize the vitality and value of 18th- and early 19th-century American music. His Notes on Music in Old Boston (Boston, 1918/R) treats its subject sympathetically and accurately, presenting many facsimiles and illustrations of music, musicians and advertisements. One Hundred and Fifty Years of Music Publishing in the United States (Boston, 1934/R) is a revision and expansion of the earlier book, emphasizing the contributions of the Oliver Ditson Co. His two historical anthologies, Ye Olde New-England Psalm-Tunes, 1620–1820 (Boston, 1930) and The Music that Washington Knew (Boston, 1931), present this music in revised and edited form, unsuited to historical purposes. He also wrote Music Festivals in the United States (Boston, 1934) and edited several anthologies of Irish songs, Negro spirituals, etc. KARL KROEGER
