Guardian obituary:



"Music was a thread and inspiration in the life of my mother, Carolyn Tipping, who has died of liver disease aged 62....

"Carolyn had been born in London into an upper-class Anglo-Irish family. Her parents were singers and musicians; her father, a baritone specialising in lieder, performed as Francis Loring. She was educated at the Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle in Kensington and Cranborne Chase school in Wiltshire. In the late 1960s, she read music and English at York University.

"When her mother became ill in 1980, Carolyn returned to her ancestral home, the 18th-century Bellurgan Park house in Dundalk, to nurse her. Academic work and music gave way to running the family farm, and in 1982 she inherited the property. In the early 1980s she married Eamon Toner, a farmer from Bellurgan, and my brother Edward and I were born soon afterwards...

"Our parents' marriage ended, but they remained on amicable terms. I survive her, along with Edward and Eamon, and her brothers, David and Christopher."
