Page "Luisa Tetrazzini" Paragraph 10

Tetrazzini had a bitter feud with Nellie Melba at Covent Garden but was generally well liked by other colleagues, including Enrico Caruso and Frieda Hempel.

Adelina Patti, the premiere soprano of an earlier generation, and not known for generosity towards other singers, was a fan of Tetrazzini's singing, and made it a point to attend and loudly applaud the younger soprano's performances.
