Elena Bianchini-Cappelli in the role of Brünnhilde in Wagner's Siegfried
She appeared with Caruso in 1895, in Cavalleria Rusticana at Caserta .[3] The pair also appeared together in Puccini's Manon Lescaut in Cairo in 1895;[4] the two were only given five days to learn the show before opening night, so Caruso fastened the score to Bianchini-Cappelli's back, limiting her stage movement: "I was helpless to do more than hold as still as possible, serving as a human music rack for my comrade," she recalled. "And what did the rascal do? He was bursting to laugh!"[3]
In 1899 she was in the cast of Wagner's Siegfried at La Scala .[5] She was in the cast of Verdi's Un ballo in maschera when it was conducted by Arturo Toscanini at Trento .[6] She first performed in the United States in 1902, the year she sang "Sylvia" in Zanetto at the Metropolitan Opera House , under the direction of composer Pietro Mascagni .[7]
In her forties she taught voice in New York City, endorsed by her old friend Caruso.[2]
Personal life and legacy [ edit ]
Elena Bianchini-Cappelli died in 1919, at her villa in Rimini , aged 46 years.
There is a street named for Elena Bianchini-Cappelli in Rimini.[8]
