The prizes go round and round: Berganza receives Menuhin award
mainThe great mezzo-soprano Teresa Berganza has received the 10th Yehudi Menuhin award from the Queen of Spain, in the last days of her reign. The award recognises her educational work. Report here.
One of the greats! I have heard her in many concerts and recitals, but her Carmen and Cenerentola at the Edinburgh Festivals with Abbado conducting were simply outstanding.
