Thoughts on my life and budding career and the things that distract me...like kittens and Doctor Who.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Role: Brünnhilde
Singer: Kirsten Flagstad
Opera: Four-opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen (R. Wagner)The rebellious valkyrie Brünnhilde is probably to blame for the stereotypical view the general population has of opera divas - women in Viking helmets, screaming at the top of their lungs - but when she’s presented in this way, who’s complaining? Flagstad is looking absolutely radiant in these pictures!
i don’t think i am ever gonna sing brunnhilde BUT DARN IT I WANT THIS HAT. helmet. sorry. helmet.
wonderful singer. she and Birgit Nilsson were the best
Lovely set, and great wings! :)
