Legendary prima donnas often have an epithet – whether la Divina, la Stupenda or la Superba. The Catalan singer Victoria de los Angeles, who celebrated her 100th birthday on November 1, 2023. If I had celebrated my birthday, the addition la Suprema was certainly due. Like hardly any other soprano of her time, she was able to combine sound, language, feeling, refinement and charm in the highest perfection in her vocal art – whether on stage, in the concert hall, on the song podium or in the recording studio. She bears the name García in her birth name and thus commemorates the legendary Spanish opera singer and vocal teacher Manuel García, father of the famous divas Maria Malibran and Pauline Viardot. In her singing style one thinks to hear the inspiration of the great namesake – timbre, phrasing, intimacy, nobility and elegance combine to sublime, aristocratic perfection.
