About Caroline Willmann
Lived 1796 – 1860 (aged 63–64). Caroline Willmann was an opera singer and voice teacher.
Caroline Willmann (full name Maria Anna Magdalena Caroline Willmann; 25 February 1796 – c. 1860)
After her mother's death, she sang in Budapest, at the court opera in Vienna, and in Breslau (now Wrocław). Alexander Wheelock Thayer wrote: "Her voice—she was but eighteen years old—was not powerful, but very pure and sweet, except in the middle tones, and of remarkable extent in the upper register." At Breslau, wrote Thayer, "the great beauty of her voice, its excellent cultivation by her mother and Blangini, her fine taste, her charming acting and her beauty, made her a general favourite."
Her life after 1825 is mostly unrecorded; she is known to have been a singing teacher in Bayreuth in 1830. She is thought to have died in Vienna about 1860.
