The Wagner Operas Podcast|In Memoriam: Astrid Varnay (1918-2006) Episode

On September of this year, soprano Astrid Varnay died in Munich, Germany. She was one of the great Wagnerian sopranos of our times, and one of the artists chosen by Wieland Wagner to re-open the Bayreuth Festival in 1951. Astrid Varnay was one of the most successful sopranos of the 1950's and 60's. In the mid 1970's she came back to the stage in character roles. In this podcast you will hear her in the role of Br�nnhilde in the 1955 stereo recording of Siegfried from the Bayreuth Festspielhaus.
