This article appears in Volume V15, Page 844 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KHA-KRI
KLAFSKY, KATHARINA -(1855-1896), Hungarian operatic
singer
 , was
born
  at Szt Janos, Wieselburg, of humble parents. Being employed at Vienna as a nurserymaid, her fine soprano voice led to her being engaged as a chorus
singer
 , and she was given good lessons in music. By 1882 she became well-known in Wagnerian roles at the
Leipzig
  theatre, and she increased her reputation at other
German
  musical centres. In 1892 she appeared in London, and had a
great
  success in
Wagner
 's operas, notably as Briinnhilde and as Isolde, her dramatic as well as vocal gifts being of an exceptional order. She sang in America in 1895, but died of brain disease in 1896.
A
Life
 , by L. Ordemann, was published in 1903 (
Leipzig
 ).
