Emmy Bettendorf

At the age of 19 she received a two-year contract there in 1914 and made her debut in Das Nachtlager von Granada by Conradin Kreutzer.

The singer expanded her repertoire in all directions, singing famous roles as both a lyrical and lyrical-dramatic soprano.

Guest performances with Bronsgeest's touring opera made her famous in Holland, Spain and all over Germany.

So it came to the Truppenbetreuung [de], in the context of which she gave concerts in Poland, Russia, Greece and Albania in front of German soldiers.

Finally, the bassist Michael Bohnen brought her to the Berlin Musikhochschule as a singing teacher.
