The first and maybe the only book about singing written by a woman singer of such international stature,
How to Sing is a rare collection of first-hand singing knowledge. Lehmann presents precisely detailed descriptions on everything from tongue placement to breathing and provides detailed diagrams to further convey physical sensations. Her convictions on the state of singing quality and the work ethics needed to attain a level of true competency are found in nearly every exercise.
How to Sing should be read by singers, instructors, and anyone interested in this fascinating art.
A propos de l’auteur
Lilli Lehmann, born in 1848, spent her childhood in Prague learning how to sing from her mother Marie Loewe, a former leading soprano and long-time personal friend of the controversial composer, Richard Wagner. At the age of sixteen, Lehmann debuted as the First Boy in Mozart s
The Magic Flute, and in 1870 she joined the Berlin Royal Opera. The Kaiser banned her operatic performances until 1891 as a penalty for her having overstayed her leave in New York, but she triumphed as an international soprano with 170 memorable roles.
