Felicity Lott a tiré sa révérence.
Mais son éclat restera.
Une voix d’argent, une élégance sans apprêt, cet art rare de faire "sourire" la musique jusque dans l’émotion...
De Mozart à Strauss, de l’opéra à la mélodie française, elle aura servi la scène avec grâce, esprit et authenticité.
Partagez-nous ce que vous retiendrez en particulier de cette grande dame.
Vive l’opéra!
Farewell, Dame Felicity Lott ❤️
The celebrated British soprano was best known for her sparkling performances of music by Richard Strauss, from his Four Last Songs to Der Rosenkavalier.
Over a four-decade international career, Lott worked with major musicians, orchestras, and opera houses throughout the world, from the Vienna Philharmonic with Georg Solti and the London Philharmonic under Bernard Haitink, to the Boston Symphony and André Previn.
Lott made her debut at the English National Opera in 1975 as a last-minute stand in for Pamina in Mozart’s ‘The Magic Flute’. From there, she went on to grace the stages of London’s Royal Opera House, New York’s Metropolitan Opera, Paris’ Palais Garnier, the Vienna State Opera, and many more.
Felicity Lott died on 15 May at the age of 79, shortly after announcing she had been diagnosed with terminal cancer.
