Cornélie Falcon
Cornélie Falcon (28 January 1814〔
Falcon's date of birth is given as 28 January 1814 by Bouvet 1927 ((snippet view ) at Google Books); Gourret 1987, p. 33; Kuhn 1992, p. 219; Warrack and West 1992, p. 230; and Robinson and Walton 2011. Other sources give her date of birth as 28 January 1812, including Fétis 1862, (p. 179 ); Pitou 1990, p. 449; Robinson 1992, p. 110; and Kutsch and Riemens 2003, p. 1388. Braud 1913, (pp. 77-78 ) (footnote 2), quotes the ''minutes des actes de naissance'' (minutes of birth certificates) of the Préfecture du département de la Seine, which read: "Du 29 janvier de l'an dix-huit cent quatorze, à midi un quart, acte de naissance de Marie-Cornélie, de sexe féminin, née d'hier à midi, rue de Béthizy, nº10, quartier Saint-Honoré, fille de Pierre Falcon, tailleur, et de Edmée-Cornélie Mérot, son épouse." ("On 29 January of the year eighteen hundred fourteen, at noon and a quarter, birth certificate of Marie-Cornélie, of female sex, born yesterday at noon, Rue du Béthizy, no. 10, Saint-Honoré Quarter, daughter of Pierre Falcon, tailor, and of Edmée-Cornélie Mérot, his wife."). Thus, her birth occurred at noon on 28 January 1814 and was recorded on 29 January at 12:15 p.m. Braud specifically repudiates the errors of earlier publications by Larousse and Malherbes which give the year 1812.〕 – 25 February 1897) was a French soprano who sang at the Opéra in Paris. Her greatest success was creating the role of Valentine in Meyerbeer's ''Les Huguenots''. She possessed "a full, resonant voice"〔Warrack and West 1992, p. 230.〕 with a distinctive dark timbre〔Robinson and Walton 2011.〕 and was an exceptional actress.〔 Based on the roles written for her voice her vocal range spanned from low A-flat to high D, 2.5 octaves. She and the tenor Adolphe Nourrit are credited with being primarily responsible for raising artistic standards at the Opéra,〔 and the roles in which she excelled came to be known as "falcon soprano" parts.〔Robinson 1992, p. 110.〕 She had an exceptionally short career, essentially ending about five years after her debut, when at the age of 23 she lost her voice during a performance of Niedermeyer's ''Stradella''.
==Early life and training==
She was born Marie-Cornélie Falcon in Le Monastier sur Gazeille ( Velay) to Pierre Falcon, a master-tailor and his wife Edmé-Cornélie. Falcon was one of three children; her sister Jenny Falcon was to marry a Russian nobleman and appear on the stage at the Mikhailovsky Theatre in St. Petersburg.〔Braud 1913, p. 77.〕 Cornélie was enrolled at the Paris Conservatory from 1827 to 1831.〔Gourret 1987, p. 33.〕 There she first studied with Felice Pellegrini and François-Louis Henry, and later with Marco Bordogni and Adolphe Nourrit.〔 She won a second prize in ''solfège'' in 1829, a first prize in vocalization (''vocalisation'') in 1830, and a first prize in singing (''chant'') in 1831.〔Pierre 1900, (p. 751 ).〕
