Though arguably the last of the "true" Wagnerians, Swedish soprano Birgit Nilsson (1918-2005) was by no means limited to Wagner in her repertoire. Her roles as Isolde, Br???nnhilde, Salome, Elektra, Dyer's Wife and Turandot were often collectively referred to as the "Nilsson repertoire."

This book celebrates the centennial of Nilsson's birth, with texts from prominent members of the music world and photographs of the singer's greatest roles.
