Josephine Fröhlich

Franz Schubert was a good friend of the family, and a frequent guest at music gatherings at their home, where he often performed his own compositions or improvised on the piano.

Fröhlich studied in the years 1819-21 and sang with the Society of Music Friends in Vienna with her sister, Anna Frölich (1793-1880).

She made her operatic debut in Mozart's opera Die Entführung aus dem Serail in 1821.

In Denmark was awarded the title of the Kongelige Kammersangere (Royal Opera singer) of Frederik VI.

After touring in Prague in 1826 and Milan in 1830, she permanently settled down in Vienna, where she became private vocal teacher.
