Charlotte Huhn

In 1881, the musically gifted Charlotte Therese Caroline Huhn began her vocal studies at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln.

[7] In a concert in the Gewandhaus Hall in Leipzig on 26 October 1899, Huhn sang Das Meer hat seine Perlen as an encore, composed by Robert Franz (1815–1892) with lyrics by Heinrich Heine.

The music critic present, Eduard Bernsdorf [de] (1825–1901) praised the singer for the "warmth of feeling" of her performance as well as the "sonority and apt treatment of her extensive alto (or mezzo-soprano) voice".

[2] Her further stage repertoire at the Court Theatres in Dresden and Munich included roles such as Ortrud in Lohengrin, Fides in Le prophète, Orpheus, Euryanthe and Brangäne in Tristan und Isolde.

The artist, who last worked as a singing teacher, died at the age of 59 after a vocal cord operation in Hamburg and found her final resting place in her birthplace at the Michaelis Cemetery.
