Eugenia Lopez Nuñes (Mezzo-Soprano) (Livorno 1883 - ?)






She made the debut in 1904 at Politeama Verdi of Carrara as Maddalena in ‘’Rigoletto’’. Since 1905 she appeared in different bigger theaters in the Italian province, thus in 1909 in the Teatro Regio of Parma as an Erda in ‘’Siegfried’’ and in Donizetti’s ‘’Maria de Rohan’’. At the height of her career she went in 1920 to Germany, married there and now appeared under the name Eugenie Heilbrunn. Still in 1932 she made under this name Ultraphon records on which she sings in German. Because she was a Jew, she had to finish her career (and probably also her stay) in Germany after 1933, however, nothing was to be brought about her other destiny up to now in experience.
