On stage, off stage
a memoir
by Régine Crespin
France's most renowned classical singer shares reminiscences about her personal life and illustrious career in this charming memoir. With candor, affection, and humor, Regine Crespin reflects on her family, friends, and colleagues, her love affairs, and, most of all, the opera.
Populated with such figures as Herbert von Karajan, Lotte Lehmann, Jon Vickers, Leontyne Price, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, and Maria Callas, this engaging autobiography offers a vivid and fascinating glimpse into the world of opera. It is also the inviting story of a remarkable woman who was a diva on the stage but never a prima donna in real life.
