    Record Source: with her brother Arthur, she gave a well-attended concert at the Steinway Hall, Marylebone, London. A newspaper reported that Mr. GOUNDRY has a bass voice of considerable power. Its real quality could hardly be gauged yesterday, when he was obviously handicapped by a cold, but he showed consistent artistic feeling in his varied selection of songs . . . . Miss GOUNDRY (a mezzo-soprano) has scarcely the same natural endowment of voice, but she certainly made a favourable impression, more particularly in the lighter items of her choice"
