Please submit sites dealing with the life or music of Liza Lehmann, including biographies, discographies, analyses of compositions, or bibliographies.
English singer and composer Elisabetha Nina Mary Frederica "Liza" Lehmann (1862-1918) was born in London to German painter Rudolf Lehmann and his Italian wife. Among her teachers was the great Jenny Lind. A combination of marriage to composer, author, and artist Herbert Bedford and what seems to have been a case of Bell's Palsy ended her singing career but allowed her to focus fully on composition.
