Renata Tebaldi - a podcast by Adriaan Fuchs

Renata Tebaldi was a singer of overwhelming expressivity and matchless vocal allure. Hers was arguably one of the most sumptuously beautiful lirico-spinto soprano voices of the 20th century. As Manuella Hoelterhoff recalls in her book Cinderella and Company: Backstage with Cecilia Bartoli, Tebaldi was a singer “who built empires out of sound,” a soprano so spellbinding that she transformed the ordinary notes available to everybody into the stuff of memory.”



In this podcast, presented by Adriaan Fuchs, we take a closer look at the life and career of Renata Tebaldi, the "voice of an angel".
