(UP) Irene Jordan, who sang at the Metropolitan Opera only seven weeks before her first baby came, says that while having a family she found a new voice which she hopes may make her a star.

The soprano thinks she can re turn to American opera in lead ing roles. She said she would go to Europe if she finds the door barred at the Metropolitan because she broke her former contract to become a mother, Miss Jordan said she owes her new. powenui voice oi excep tional range to an obscure Span ish singer who bucked modern technique and taught her to ex pand her throat Marti-Folgado passed on his ideas about muscu lar control of the throat to the young Alabamlan before he died of cancer a year ago, She now sings above high and dips lower on the scale than when she was a mezzo. Learned All Over "I had to learn to sing all over again and at first lt sounded like the croaking of a frog," she said. Learning to make more room inside her throat where big roll' Ing tones resound was a matter of developing muscles which are seldom used.

She had to let out collars on her dresses which became to tight when her neck size grew. Miss Jordan's next step Is to show the new voice to the critics. She plans a Town Hall recital In New York and is willing to gamble on getting favorable re views. Miss Jordan taught music at Judson College in Alabama for two years before she went to New York. to study voice and dramatics.

After an office job she found a spot in the chorus of a Broadway musical and worked her way into a radio program called "Songs by Irene." An nouncing her own numbers and playing radio drama parts gave her a deep, round speaking voice. Audition Brings Contact The low, dark tones of her old mezzo-soprano style won an audition at the Metropolitan and a contract. She married Arnold Caplan, a violinist in the orches tra. Her last supporting role on the Metropolitan stage was in December, 1947, and in early Feb ruary her son, Joel, was born. Marti-Folgado told Miss Jor dan she was not a mezzo.

Much bigger things than supporting roles are in store, he promised. She began to learn the new way to sing. For three years she has worked on it, learning five lead parts.
