Summary/Abstract: Florica Cristoforeanu’s art, both vocal and dramatic, was exceptional, supported by a timbre of rare richness and emotional sensitivity in all her roles. One of the outstanding personalities of the world lyric and a tireless ambassador of the Romanian singing school, a great artist in the purest sense of the word and a being of an exceptional humanity. Born in the same year as Cella Delavrancea and Florica Musicescu, 1887, the great Cristoforeanu proposed, as well as the other two representatives of classical music, an original and vigorous interpretive discourse of the art of world singing, highlighting it’s richness of emotional nature, a unique interpretive aesthetic that only great artists can express in their own particular way.
