Therese Teyber

[2] The composer Giuseppe Bonno was witness to her parents' marriage and may have been Therese's childhood music instructor.

[7][8] In September of 1778, Therese made her debut as Fiametta in Maximilian Ulbrich's Frühling und Liebe.

[11] The following year, the composer had planned for Therese to premiere the role of Metilde in Lo sposo deluso, but the opera with never completed.

[15][16] Therese Teyber was largely popular as an actress and singer, though she was compensated far less than her other female counterparts, like Nancy Storace.

[6][18] In 1786, Therese married the tenor Philipp Ferdinand Arnold, with whom she had sung in Frühling und Liebe eight years prior.

[9][19][20] For a number of the final performances of Don Giovanni in Vienna in 1788, Therese probably replaced Luisa Laschi as Zerlina.
