About me / Bio:
Kirsten Flagstad was a Norwegian opera singer, who was the outstanding Wagnerian soprano of her era. Her triumphant debut in New York on 2 February 1935 is one of the legends of opera. She sang all the major Wagner roles at the Metropolitan Opera, Covent Garden, and Bayreuth. She also performed in other operas by Gluck, Beethoven, and Purcell. She was the first director of the Royal Norwegian Opera from 1958 to 1960. She was praised for her beauty and consistency of line and tone. She was awarded the Grand Cross of St. Olav in 1947 and the Royal Philharmonic Society's Gold Medal in 1951. She is widely regarded as one of the greatest singers of the 20th century.
