The great 20th-century lyrical singers (1950-2000) North America
Fleming or Albanese? Lehmann or Domingo? It is difficult for inquiring minds to tackle a field as large and diverse as the lyrical art, covering 10 centuries of history: there are many lyrical artists in the world. Making a selection of musicians, such as a “top 10” for example, is a difficult and subjective exercise. A musical selection is often the expression of personal preferences or artistic opinions, very interesting but also very different according to critics or musicologists, or simply influenced by the context: will an English lyrical singer not be instinctively privileged by an English critic?
For example: in France, Roberto Alagna, a French tenor, is more popular than the Russian mezzo-soprano Elena Obraztsova, who is more renowned throughout the world.
Timeline of lyrical singers, between 1950 and 2000+ in North America
Whoever wants to discover opera does not always have an experienced music lover, an expert or an educator at his or her side to support and guide him or her in this field. So : Fleming (American opera soprano) or Albanese (Italian-born American operatic soprano) ? Scotto (Operatic soprano) or Sierra (American opera soprano) ? However, the knowledge available about musicians is enormous. It was processed to select the 10, 25, 50... most popular lyrical singers around the world, for those living or having lived en North America, between 1950 and 2000+. And this objectively, and for the first time (soClassiQ exclusivity).

Some lyrical singers to be celebrated very soon
Next month, more than 30 important artists and musicians will be honoured. In September 2020 some of them may celebrate a special anniversary. For others, amateurs and enthusiasts will celebrate the bicentenary of their birth or the fiftieth anniversary of their death for example. Among them, some famous lyrical singers:
on 1, Sophie Dietz (1820-1887), 200th anniversary (Birth),
on 6, Anders Näslund (1920-1974), 100th anniversary (Birth),
on 9, Jussi Björling (1911-1960), 60th anniversary (Death),
on 16, Mark Schultz (1970- ), 50th anniversary,
on 20, Gilles Binchois (1400-1460), 560th anniversary (Death),
...
There are others to discover. And it is not too late to focus on the August 2020 celebrations (40+).
Always good opportunities to discover or deepen, (re)listen, explore the vastness and diversity of classical music...
