(They had married in 1869 while Désirée Artôt was still informally engaged to Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, but she did not inform him she had changed her mind.) Her godmother was her mother's singing teacher Pauline Viardot.〔(Anne Eugenie Schoen Rene, America’s Musical Inheritance – Memories and Reminiscences )〕 She exhibited her vocal ability at a young age, but not her mother’s fiery temperament. Her mother was her sole singing teacher.〔 She made an unofficial debut in Paris〔 and her major debut at the Hoftheater Wiesbaden in 1902 in the title role of Thomas's ''Mignon'' and from 1905 until 1908 she sang at the Komische Oper Berlin. From 1909 until 1927 she worked at the Berliner Hofoper (Imperial Opera). She also performed in other cities in Germany and in the Netherlands, Paris, Scandinavia and Poland.〔(Artot Padilla, Lola )〕 Lola Artôt de Padilla created the role of Vreli (Juliet) in Frederick Delius's ''A Village Romeo and Juliet'' (Berlin, 21 February 1907).〔(Opera Almanac )〕〔 (Delius Society Newsletter )〕 She was the first in Berlin to sing the title roles in Busoni's opera ''Turandot'' and Richard Strauss's ''Der Rosenkavalier'' (Strauss considered her the best Octavian he had ever heard),〔〔(David Nice, Richard Strauss )〕 the Composer in Strauss's ''Ariadne auf Naxos'',〔 *〕 and the Goosegirl in Engelbert Humperdinck's ''Königskinder'' (European premiere, 14 January 1911).
