Lind lived the characters she played, and won the explosive esteem of two continents through her art. It was music that wed deep technical ability to profound psychological insight.
Everywhere she went, even facing down crowds that had resolved ahead of time that they would boo her into submission, she drew deep on her artistry, opened her mouth, and produced sounds that left hostile audiences awash in tears, their hands raw from applauding the music that their hearts could not stand against. There will never again be a musician as universally adored and adulated as soprano Jenny Lind, the Swedish Nightingale.
