- 摘要: "From the moment of her Metropolitan Opera debut in Lucia di Lammermoor, Lily Pons captured the hearts and imaginations of opera audiences with her beauty, elegance, and style. She was an overnight success, and although she sang only ten roles in her three decades at the Met, Pons was its reigning diva from her 1931 debut until her final season in 1959. To American audiences especially, she remained the premiere coloratura soprano of the interwar years, bridging the gap between the eras of Amelita Galli-Curci and Maria Callas."--Jacket.
