Friedrich Rebling
Friedrich Rebling ( August 14, 1834 in Barby - October 15, 1900 in Leipzig ) was a German opera singer ( tenor ) and singing teacher .
Life
Rebling attended the Leipzig Conservatory (1852–1855), where he was trained not only in singing, but also in piano and violin playing. Professor Franz Götze , Ignaz Moscheles and Moritz Hartmann were his teachers.
He started his stage career in 1855, first tried his hand at smaller stages and in 1858 joined the Leipzig City Theater Association, where he made his debut as "Josef". After a short stay there, he took up engagements in Rostock, Königsberg and Breslau and returned to Leipzig in 1865, where he remained until he left the stage (1879).
Already two years before he left the boards, this versatile and dignified musician of extensive education was appointed to the Leipzig Conservatory for Music as a teacher of voice training and the singing method. Many singers who worked on the first stages owe their lessons to Rebling. He was also a correspondent for the Musikalisches Wochenblatt .
He was no less valued as a practicing artist than as a teacher, and was praised for his vocal talent as well as his extraordinary stage agility. His portrayals of Mozart's and Wagner's roles (of the latter, his names "David" and "Mime" were highlighted) were described as exemplary. The artist died on October 15, 1900 in Leipzig.
