Emmy Destinn. who was born exactly 100 years ago in Prague. was perhaps the greatest dramatic soprano the world has ever seen. For more than a decade she was the darling of London, Berlin, and New York, with a personality as great as her voice; among the many who came under her spell were Toscanini, Puccini, and Caruso.
Dr Bedrich Belohlavek, writer and musicologist, and former well-known Prague music critic, tells her story with illustrations from some of her historic recordings.
