Mouritz description: 

This newspaper article is the first report we have of Alexander in London where he arrived in June 1904. It relates the meeting between Miss Violet Elliott, an Australian contralto with a "phenomenally deep voice", and F. M. Alexander. Their meeting takes place at one of "London’s most eminent throat and nose specialists." It provides a brief summary of Alexander's approach and a poignant insight into his thinking at this time.
