Göta Ljungberg (4 October 1893 – 28 June 1955) was a major Swedish Wagnerian dramatic soprano of the 1920s who sang throughout American and Europe and left an important recorded legacy.

Her Royal Opera House London debut was in 1924 as Sieglinde (Der Ring des Nibelungen) under Bruno Walter.

Voice problems eventually caused retirement [2] but as late as 1938 she gave a set of songs with orchestra in concert in Copenhagen [4] 1924: Richard Strauss: Salome, cond.

"The best of the vocal records [of that month] appears to be that of the Love Duet.. sung by Gota Ljungberg and Walter Widdop, at whose hands the amorous frenzy of the climax is given full value" [7] 1929: Richard Strauss: Salome (Finale).

[9] Hermann Klein for the Gramophone is more enthusiastic: "neither in the important matter of style nor for beauty of voice or purity and breadth of declamation could [her colleagues in the recording] be compared with an IsoIde like Göta Ljungberg" [10] 1933: Giacomo Puccini: Tosca arias with Joseph Schmidt.
