Dame Nellie Melba was the Beyonce of her time. She could not only float a tune. She transformed opera, forcing the space to evolve and, in turn, embrace the new and the innovative.
Without Melba, we might not know and/or appreciate the genius of Puccini’s La Boheme.
Dame Nellie Melba was a relentless opportunity hunter.
When doors closed, she opened all the windows.
