Koshetz, Nina. (1891 - 1965). Signed Photograph. Very rare signed photograph of the great Ukrainian soprano. Signed and inscribed and in fine condition. 18.5 x 20 cm.

A student of Felia Litvinne in France, some of her early recitals at the Petrograd Conservatory were accompanied by then-unknown Vladimir Horowitz. From 1920, she was in America, where she sang in the The Love for Three Oranges (1921) premiere with the Chicago Opera Association and later performed with the Russian Opera Company in New York and on tour in South America. At the end of the 1920s she was active in France, where she appeared in the French premiere of Sadko.

Known for her overly-extravagant life style, her vocal powers declined in the 1930s and in 1940 she retired to Hollywood where she made a living as a voice teacher and restaurateur (a venture that ended in bankruptcy in 1942). She also appeared in bit parts in several Hollywood movies. She was one of the very greatest!
