Marie Gutheil-Schoder (February 16, 1874October 4, 1935) was an important German soprano. Born Marie Schoder in Weimar, she married Gustav Gutheil in 1899, with whom she lived until his death in 1914. She debuted in the secondary role of the First Lady at the Weimar Court Opera in ''The Magic Flute'' in her native city of Weimar in 1891. Gustav Mahler engaged her for the Vienna State Opera in 1900, where she remained until 1926. She appeared at the Royal Opera House as Octavian in ''Der Rosenkavalier'' in 1913. One of her famous roles was her portrayal of a "strange, Nietzschean" Carmen. She was seen in the 1914 Vienna premiere of Richard Strauss's ballet, ''Josephslegende'' as Potiphar's Wife. She created Esmeralda in the world premiere of Franz Schmidt's opera ''Notre Dame'' in the same year. Gutheil-Schoder created the fiercely difficult single role of Arnold Schoenberg's monodrama ''Erwartung'' in 1924 in Prague; earlier that year, she performed his ''Pierrot lunaire''. Mahler termed her "a musical genius," and she was highly regarded as a musician and singing-actress, although she seemed to be, as one Viennese critic wrote, "the singer without a voice." In her later career, she became a stage director of opera. She was a well-known pedagogue as well, one of her students being the mezzo-soprano Risë Stevens. She died at the age of 61, in Ilmenau, Germany. ==Recordings== In 1902, she recorded for Gramophone & Typewriter Company Records, in Vienna: Two excerpts from ''Carmen'', an aria from ''The Merry Wives of Windsor'', and duets from ''La dame blanche'' and ''Les contes d'Hoffmann'' were performed. In 2004, Symposium Records issued a Compact Disc entitled ''Vienna – The Mahler Years''. Included are the two duets Gutheil-Schoder recorded (with ), along with recordings by Selma Kurz, Leo Slezak, Erik Schmedes, Lilli Lehmann, etc. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Marie Gutheil-Schoder」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
