The soprano Elisabeth Schwarzkopf has died. Sure she joined the Nazi Party (something she denied for years and then acted as if it was just a minor nuisance and all that mattered was ART). Wht can I say? She joins Leni Riefenstalh and others who have been forever tainted but still deliver great art. It's her recording of Strauss' Four Last Songs whenever I want to mourn someone's death. Now I'll do it for her and Schwarzkopf will be singing herself to sleep. Hmm, maybe I'll write a final blog entry or two that can go up after I die.
