Rachel Yakar (1936-2023)

[eschiss1]

Rachel Yakar, a soprano with a very wide repertoire who died today, may be known to us here mostly for her recording of Giuseppe Martucci's Canzoni, but in any event I believe she may have made premiere or early recordings of a whole lot of works (if not generally in our forum's orbit otherwise.)

Sad news. A very fine singer.

In Armin Jordan's recording of 1981 she sings a beautiful Mélisande alongside with Eric Tappy and Philippe Huttenlocher.
