Marie Michailowa made her first appearance in Charkow, Russia when she was a very young girl, in later years she held the position of chief prima donna with the Imperial Opera House in Petrograd. Mikhailova, Maria Alexandrovna, soprano, * 3.6.1866 (according to other sources in 1864) Kharkov, † 18.1.1943 Perm (then Molotov) in the Urals; she came from a Russian-Dutch family, her mother's family name was van Puteren. She began her training with Mme Groewing-Wilde in Kharkov and at the St. Petersburg Conservatory, then a student at St. Yves-Bax in Paris and from Rauzzoni in Milan. Debut in 1892 at the Mariensky Theater (the Court Opera) of St. Petersburg as Queen Marguerite in the "Huguenots" by Meyerbeer. There she sang a small role on December 18, 1892 in the premiere of Tchaikovsky's opera "Jolanthe", and on October 29, 1895 in the premiere of the trilogy "Oresteia" by Tanejew the part of Elektra. Throughout her career she stayed in St. Petersburg, where she was celebrated by the society of Tsarist Russia. She has made guest appearances in Moscow, Kiev, Kharkov, Odessa and other Russian cities. Her major roles were the Ludmilla in Glinka's "Ruslan and Ludmilla", the Antonida in "Life for the Tsar", the Lakmé, the Micaela in "Carmen", the Tamara in Rubinstein's "Demon", the Gilda in "Rigoletto", the Juliette in Roméo et Juliette, Nannetta in Verdi's Falstaff (which she created for Russia in St. Petersburg in 1894), Amina in La Sonnambula and Marguerite in Huguenots. She became world famous for her records, which appeared since 1900 and aroused general admiration. However, the artist never managed to leave Russia; she only made guest appearances in Prague in 1903. Oscar Hammerstein tried unsuccessfully to commit them to the Manhattan Opera House in New York, which he founded. However, she is said to have undertaken a concert tour through Japan in 1907. In 1912 she took leave of the stage at the Mariensky Theater in St. Petersburg as Antonida in Glinka's Life for the Tsar. In 1913 or 1914 she is said to have once again undertaken a concert tour in Russia. She later lived in Leningrad. Apparently she got into financial trouble after the October Revolution; In 1921 she petitioned the director of the Leningrad Opera for help. Nothing is known about her other circumstances. During the siege of Leningrad by German troops in World War II, she was evacuated to Perm in the Urals, where she died in 1943. - Your voice is one of the most beautiful, which is preserved from the early days of the record; sovereign mastery of technology and stylish presentation art balance each other in their interpretations.
