Richard Tauber
Richard Tauber, born in Linz in 1891, was one of the most celebrated tenors of his era, captivating audiences across Europe and America with his operatic and operetta performances. Renowned for his role in Mozart's 'Don Giovanni', Tauber's lyrical tenor voice was a highlight of pre-war Vienna's operetta scene. His fame led to a prolific recording career, showcasing his versatility in both German folk settings and classical Lieder by composers such as Mendelssohn and Schubert. Tauber's life took a dramatic turn with the Anschluss, prompting his escape to the UK with his British-born wife. Despite the upheaval, he continued to enchant audiences until his passing in London in 1948. Tauber's legacy endures as one of the finest tenors of his time, remembered for his ravishing vocal colours and enduring popularity.
