The great 20th-century lyrical singers (1950-2000) North America
Horne or Legrand? Callas or Fleming? 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 : Horne (American mezzo-soprano opera singer) or Legrand (French film score composer (1932–2019)) ? Hampson (American lyric baritone) or Foster (Canadian musician, record producer, songwriter) ? 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).
