Schumann-Heink, Ernestine

(sho͞o`mən-hīngk), 1861–1936, Austrian-American contralto, b. near Prague. Her voice was distinguished for its richness and wide range. She studied with Marietta Leclair, made her concert debut in 1876 and her operatic debut two years later in Dresden in Il Trovatore. For many years she sang at Hamburg and Bayreuth, also appearing at London's Covent Garden in Wagnerian roles. After making her American debut in Chicago in 1898, she sang regularly (1899–1904) with the Metropolitan Opera Company, becoming a U.S. citizen in 1905. She had a repertory of 150 roles and was a fine actress, popular even when her voice had diminished.

Schumann-Heink, Ernestine (b. Rossler)

(1861–1936) contralto; born near Prague, Bohemia. Having come to fame in Europe, especially for her Wagnerian roles (she appeared at Bayreuth between 1896 and 1906), she made her American debut in Chicago in 1898; she would sing with the Metropolitan Opera off and on until 1932. Regarded as the greatest contralto of her time, she concertized with German lieder but would also perform light opera and sing on the radio when it became popular. An American citizen from 1905, she remained in the U.S.A. during World War I and demonstrated her patriotism while sons of her different marriages fought on opposite sides. (Her hyphenated last name was composed of the names of two of her three husbands.) She made one movie, Here's to Romance (1935), but died before she could continue with her plans for a film career.
