High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Robert Easton (8 June 1898, in Sunderland, England - 1987) was a British bass of the mid-twentieth century. His teachers were Bozelli, Dinh Gilly, Norman Notly and Harry Plunket Greene. He was successful in both concert hall and opera house, being noted, inter alia, for the heavy Wagnerian bass roles. On 5 October 1938 he was one of the original 16 singers in Vaughan Williams's Serenade to Music. The solo lines composed for him set the words, 'The reason is, your spirits are attentive' and 'Is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils.' Robert Easton was severely wounded in the trenches in the First World War, having a leg amputated, and when he was invalided out of the army he was offered training, first as an accountant, which he realised quickly he was not suited for, and then as a singer.
