Kirsten Flagstad’s live performances 1948-1957 [3 CD]

In the course of her 40 year long singing career, Kirsten Flagstad sang roles in over eighty operas and operettas spread over more than 2100 performances. She sang in two hundred and fifty orchestral concerts and gave over six hundred recitals. She also left a legacy of more than nine hundred recordings.

In this five-box set Simax Classics is proud to present the most important of these recordings, in a selection made by Arne Dørumsgaard, himself a composer, singer and record collector, in addition of having been a close friend of Madame Flagstad of the post-war years.
