拍品专文

The German soprano Frieda Hempel was remarkable for her ability to master coloratura as well as weightier soprano roles, and she shone as much in Wagner's operas as in Richard Strauss's. Metropolitan Opera Guild minutes record that Hempel carried this lorgnette in her role as the Marschallin.
