I regretfully bid farewell to a city where I have spent so many happy years in making my modest contribution to its musical development. I shall always look back with pride to my association with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and New South Wales Conservatorium of Music, and hope that both will continue to grow in artistic achievement.
It is my misfortune that I allowed myself to be used to bring prohibited materials into this country as a result of persistent menaces involving others. 44.
Under the heading of ‘Exit Sir Eugene with a change of tune’, The Daily Telegraph noted he...
looked thinner than he did at anytime during his musical career in Sydney during the last nine years. When he reached the top of the stairs at the aircraft door he half turned quickly and raised his right arm shoulder high in a farewell wave . 45.

Sir Eugene flew from Rome to the convent outside Paris where Lady Goossens still remained in closed retreat. After that meeting, they never met again.
After a short time at his club ‘Savage.’ he took up residence in a small flat at 76 Hamilton terrace N.W.8.
"It was a very small flat," Joan Sutherland, the former suburban secretary whose musical career he had kick started when he gave her the lead role in his one act opera, Judith, remembered. "Scored manuscripts tumbled from the book cases... and he seemed to be so much smaller...shrunken."
A view at variance with that of the Daily Telegraph correspondent when the maestro arrived in Sydney in 1947...
He is a big, pink man with large ears. A long pointed nose, alert eyes, a bulging forehead and long sideburns turning Grey at the ends. He moves slowly, speaks softly with an accent that has a faint flavour of the English North Country about it. But you are conscious all the time of the tremendous latent force in the man, of controlled and latent power.
In photos he looks unemotional, almost cold. But he is one of the proofs that the camera can lie. He is warm, friendly, direct and with immense personal charm and manners. 46..
When Sutherland saw him it was shortly after his last recital in London’s Festival Hall on March 31 1962. The years had not been kind to him and he was in continuing ill health. In June of that year he flew to Switzerland to visit one of his daughters. On the return flight to London he was taken ill. Rushed to hospital he died on June 13 1962. Not from the heart condition which had plagued his life; an ulcer perforated his stomach and he died from peritonitis.
The 60’s and early 70’s were the age of phsycadaelia. Everybody seemed to be out of it on either acid or grass. The credo was tune in, turn on, drop out. Roie, who had been living that way, years before Professor Leary had dropped his first tab, now found herself just another mystic artist among the beads, bells, bangles and flowing caftans worn by the Pagans and Pantheists who now proliferated in the Cross. Kids were being born and named Sky, Rain, and Free. Legitimate stage shows such as Hair, Oh Calcutta, and Lady of the Flowers featured full frontal nudity. According to one disgruntled ex J.C.Williamson ‘boy’,
Forget talent, Ned. It’s all big hair and big dick today. 47..
In various venues in the Cross and outer suburbs real and simulated sex acts were being performed which made the wicked witch’s activities look like amateur theatricals.
Roie, who had always enjoyed robust health, now began to feel aches and pains ‘down there,’ as she put it. In 1979 she was diagnosed as having cancer of the colon. She spent her last days in the Sacred Heart Hospice, just a short stroll from her old flat in Brougham Street.
Richard Moir who privately published a memoir about her in 1994 paints a vivid picture of the last time he saw her.
When I arrived at the hospital I was ushered into the visitor’s lounge room, strange I thought, as Roie couldn’t walk.
I waited in the lounge for some time patiently; suddenly Rosaleen Norton appeared physically standing on both legs, welcoming me, escorted by two sisters. The vision I beheld was mind blowing.
Rosaleen Norton (not Roie) standing there in full garb, her hair flaming back, carefully arranged in her look. Her make up had been very carefully applied, the face powder, the Rosaleen Norton full eye make up and eyebrows, the red lipstick. It was the Rosaleen Norton as I had always remembered her-but even more so.
She stood there for only a moment...The last words Rosaleen Norton said to me were,"Darling; I can’t stay too long. I just came to say hello. Ah! I must go, Darling."" and with her head in a proud position Rosaleen Norton was escorted away out of my sight forever.
48.
Sister Jacinta, well over seventy and still supervising a busy ward remembers her well. "If she was a witch, she was a very nice one,"she said. 49.
Surrounded by nuns, a dedicated Pagan to the end, Rosaleen Norton died on December 5 1979.
Gavin Greenlees’ schizophrenia and paranoid delusions saw him in and out of mental institutions. After an extensive course of E.C.T. he was pronounced cured, took a small flat in Woollhara and began writing poetry again. The landlord found him slumped over the kitchen table on December 5 1983. He had died of a heart attack, four years to the day after Roie’s passing.
Attorney General Frank Walker disbanded the Vice Squad, the bane of Roie’s life, in 1987.
Bert Trevener, long retired from the Vice Squad, still holds firmly to his convictions.
Fuelling the fears of the old guard that it could be made compulsory, the ‘abominable practise of Buggery’ is now celebrated annually at Sydney’s Mardi Gras.
Throughout the suburbs, Pagans, Pantheists and Wiccans now mix, mingle and, with children and dogs underfoot, exchange spells and web sites; for witches do like to party. Roie, even although she once described children as,
Horrible little pink things. All arms and legs who suck the life out of you. 50.
Would love it.

The Rite of Pan
Came the voice of destiny,
Calling o’er the Ionian Sea,
The Great God Pan is dead, is dead.
Humbled is the horned head;
Shut the door that hath no key-
Waste the vales of Arcady.

Shackled by the Iron Age,
Lost the woodland heritage,
Heavy goes the heart of man,
Parted from the light-foot Pan;
Wearily he wears the chain
Till the Goat-god comes again.

Half a man and half a beast,
Pan is greatest,Pan is least.
Pan is all, and all is Pan;
Look for him in every-man;
Goat-hoof swift and shaggy thigh-
Follow him to Arcady.

He shall wake the living dead-
Cloven hoof and horned head,
Human heart and human brain,
Pan the goat- god comes again!
Half a beast and half a man-
Pan is all and all is Pan.
Come,O Goat -god,come again! 52.
