Lviv. The Solomiia Krushelnytska Museum
In 2022 it was 150 years since the birth and 70 years since the death of the great Ukrainian Solomiia Krushelnytska. She was called the Wagnerian prima donna, the most enchanting Butterfly, the ideal singer. In her lifetime she was recognised as the most outstanding opera performer in the world for her acting talent, her consummate performing art and her inborn beauty. She performed demanding parts in eight languages, but considered Ukrainian her mother tongue. Into the programme of her concerts Solomiia always included Ukrainian folk songs. Her lyric-dramatic soprano accompanies the tour of the music and memorial museum, housed in Lviv in the flat where, from 1903 to 1952, this outstanding opera singer of the 20th century lived.
