Tetrazzini “had a scintillating voice with a brilliant timbre and a range and agility well beyond the norm...” She enjoyed a highly successful operatic and concert career in Europe and America from the 1890s through to the 1920s.
Her voice lives on in recordings made from 1904-1920.
She wrote a memoir, My Life of Song, in 1921 and a treatise, How to Sing, in 1923.
After retirement, she taught voice in her homes in Milan and Rome until her death.
