Christa Ludwig


So sad to hear of the death of the great German Mezzo-Soprano Christa Ludwig, she was 93 years old and to me she was one of the greatest Mezzo's. Her performance in Verdi's Requiem is one of the great performances of the 20th century., Verdi himself would have been thrilled to hear her perform his Requiem! Christa was/is one of my inspirations, she is the singer I will listen to to try to improve my own Mezzo range! Thank you Christa for your art, work, voice, dedication and music. Your voice will never die and you will live on forever in my heart and in millions of others too, and many still haven't discovered you yet. The future generations will hold you in high regard as we do today. May you rest in peace ❤
