Born Feb. 15, 1890 in Stettin, Germany. Studied with Hugo Rasch in Berlin and then debuted at Coburg--1921-'23. Moved to Berlin and specialized in recitals and oratorio...with great success. She rarely appeared on the opera stage beyond singing Erda and one of the 3 Norns in the Ring cycle at Bayreuth in 1927-'8. In 1933 no longer appeared because of her religion. In 1947 moved to Hilversum, Hollarnd. Recorded for Telefunken, Ultraphone, and Eterna. Don't have a death date for her. GMMIX
Eva Liebenberg is not referenced in Grove, however maybe in the new reprint; is mentioned in Blyth's Opera on Record p38 in regards to a recording of Orfeo ed Euridice: "....who sings the 1762 version (A:33, in German - Telef.HT31) is warm-toned, placid. These are three appreciable singers here on the slopes rather than on the heights." I have been through quite a few ref. books and EL is not mentioned. Divine voice. Would love to hear the reverse.

A marvelous voice in this Saint-Saens most famous aria. Beautiful painting of Samson having his hair and his strength removed by Delilah.

How am I to thank you, Geo !
Crossection of the 20th century history:
Stettin became a Polish city Szczeciń...-
Eva Liebenberg will sing here again
as another "unknown" record of hers
has been found.
Greetings,
J.

I am so thrilled when I happen to find
a trace of the artist that seem to be
either forgotten or...even regarded as unknown,
who turns out to present the real art.
For me "the real art" is what really moves
me; my senses, my soul...- I have no ambition
to discuss pro and contras - I have no ground for it.
Thank you, Paul for help.
She "will sing" one day, the more that...
another forgotten record of hers has just been found.

I very much hope that there is somebody who can give information about
Eva Liebenberg.
Her voice is really exceptional !

A special inspiration drawn from this
piece made me write a sort of the Motto,
which may be seen on my general page,
left upper corner.
