Clara Vespermann

The conductor and composer Peter Winter trained her in singing and took her into his family as a foster daughter.

[1] On 28 February 1817, she sang in the world premiere of Winter's Maometto II and on 7 May 1821, in that of Johann Kaspar Aiblinger's Rodrigo und Ximene.

Guest appearances took her to the Staatsoper Unter den Linden, the Dresden Court Opera and the Opernhaus Leipzig.

At La Scala, she gave a guest performance in the world premiere of Winter's opera I due Valdomiri on 26 December 1817, among others.

The composer Carl Maria von Weber subsequently described her performance as "unique and unattainable".
