Update & rewrite

The existing text has 3 major problems

Much of the text lacks any citations.
Some of the text is out of chronological order. For instance this sentence appears in a paragraph that's primarily about Shaw's career in the 1990s. "Since this time, Shaw has regularly worked in duo settings with other singers, including Claire Martin, Linda Lewis, Liane Carroll, and Sarah Jane Morris."
The text is incomplete. Apart from the discography, the main text stops at 2011.

I'm editing the existing text and adding around 6 paragraphs of new text to bring the entry up to date. I have researched the subject and found citations for most of the material.

Template:BLP sources

Citations have been added, covering most of the material in the entry, which I think resolves the issues. So I think the {{Template:BLP sources}} can now be removed. How15948 (talk) 11:20, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
