The great American mezzo has been awarded the Austrian Theatre Prize.

To mark the occasion, the porcelain maker Augarten has made her a personalised tea-set.

    And what has she done in, say, the past 3 decades to deserve the accolade?

    Maybe nothing more than you have done in the past three decades, but all of us know who Grace Bumbry is and no one knows who you are. That’s certainly not nothing.
