Elisabeth Schumann
1888-1952
Soprano
Elisabeth Schumann (13 June 1888 in Merseburg – 23 April 1952 in New York) was a German lyric soprano who sang in opera, operetta, oratorio, and lieder. She left a substantial legacy of recordings.
Schumann trained for a singing career in Berlin and Dresden. She made her stage debut in Hamburg in 1909. Her initial career started in the lighter soubrette roles that expanded into mostly lyrical roles, some coloratura roles, and even a few dramatic roles. As issues that lead to World War I threatening Europe, she came to the United States where she joined faculty at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia
During World War II she lived in New York City, where she gave recitals, but concentrated mostly on teaching. After the war she returned to London in 1945, and made a successful comeback.
She was a much-loved artist, admired for her vivacity, elegance, and beauty. She was closely connected with Richard Strauss, Otto Klemperer, Lotte Lehmann, Bruno Walter, Wilhelm Furtwängler, and other leading musicians of the first half of the 20th century.
