A soaring Spanish voice is stilled at 90

The Liceu in Barcelona has tweeted news of the death of soprano Enriqueta Tarrés, one of the frontline singers of her time. After making her debut at the Liceu aged 23, she joined the Basel Opera and later the Berlin State Opera, where she was appointed Kammersängerin.

Internationally, she sang major roles at the Met, Glyndebourne Covent Garden and Vienna.

In Spain, she premiered operas by Xavier Benguerel, Josep Soler and Luis de Pablo.
