February 29. German soprano Lotte Lehmann (1888-1976) one of the most
eminent lyric dramatic sopranos of her day made her Metropolitan Opera
debut on January 11, 1934 as Sieglinde in Die Walküre. A month later,
Lehmann performed on Arturo Toscanini's first radio broadcast (The
Cadillac Hour, February 11, 1934). She was renowned for her interpretations
of Mozart, Wagner and the songs of Schumann. Lotte Lehmann would
retire from the recital stage in 1951. She would then teach master classes
at the Music Academy of the West (which she helped found) in Santa
Barbara, California, and Lehmann would also give master classes in a number of
other cities in the U.S. and abroad. Cancellation stamp touches five words still
legible. Lightly worn at corners. Otherwise, fine condition.
