Elizabeth Young (contralto)
Elizabeth Young (173? in London – 12 April 1773 in London) was an English contralto and actress. She was part of a well-known English family of musicians that included several professional singers and organists during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In 1755 Elizabeth traveled to Dublin with Uncle Thomas and Aunt Cecilia Arne to sing the role of Grideline in Thomas's opera ''Rosamond'' at the Smock Alley Theatre. The trip proved to be somewhat ill-fated as Thomas and Cecilia's marital difficulties came to a head on this trip, with the end result being that Thomas left his wife. Elizabeth did not stick to blood lines and decided to return to England with her uncle in 1756. The following December she appeared as a shepherdess in her uncle's opera ''Eliza (Arne), Eliza''.Olive Baldwin, Thelma Wilson: "Elizabeth Young", ''Grove Music Online'' ed. L.
