Christine Johnson
Christine Johnson was an American contralto represented in the Pristine catalogue through Adolf Busch’s Mozart orchestral recordings.
The release places her with Busch, Rudolf Serkin, Lukas Foss and chamber forces in a programme extending beyond Mozart into Purcell, Schütz and Stafford Smith.
Because wider public biographical detail is limited, this entry is kept close to the recording evidence and its chamber-orchestral context...
