Victoria de los Angeles

About

It is generally accepted that Victoria de Los Angeles possessed one of the most beautiful soprano voices of the 20th Century. Her musicality was supported by a vocal timbre suffused with the bright warmth of an Iberian summer. Her appearances in the concert hall and opera house, and her first recordings, drew the highest accolades from the musical establishment, critics and public. Her personality, excellent technique and dedicated approach would have secured her place as a great singer in any age.

In Spanish song she was surely the paramount interpreter of her generation, and like her predecessor, the much lamented Conchita Supervia (1895-1936), she has left a legacy of recordings that will be treasured by all devotees of recorded vocal art.

Victoria de Los Angeles’ earliest commercial recordings were issued on 78rpm discs between 1948-54. This Prima Voce disc is a transfer of recordings made in the 50s which show her voice in all its pristine, youthful and exuberant freshness.
