Anne Ziegler and Webster Booth
The Keys of Heaven (VAR118)
Anne Ziegler and Webster Booth were together one of the most successful musical acts of the late 1930s and the 1940s. They were known as the "Sweethearts in Song." The tracks on this CD come from a unique collection of private recordings and test pressings which surfaced at an auction early in 2026. Anne Ziegler's first private recordings of 1935 and the appearance of the couple at the 1945 Royal Variety Performance are amongst the highlights of this collection. Excerpts from Radio Shows, Forces Broadcasts, and interviews complete the CD.
