Specificatii
'People may say that I couldn't
sing. But no one can say that I didn't sing.' Despite lacking
pitch, rhythm or tone, Florence Foster Jenkins became one of
America's best-known sopranos, celebrated for her unique recordings
and her sell-out concert at Carnegie Hall. Born in 1868 to wealthy
Pennsylvanian parents, Florence was a talented young pianist but
her life was thrown into turmoil when she eloped with Frank
Jenkins, a man twice her age. The marriage proved a disaster and,
in order to survive, Florence was forced to abandon her dreams of a
musical career and teach the piano. Then her father died in 1909
and, newly installed in New York, she used a considerable
inheritance to fund her passion. She set up a prestigious amateur
music club and began staging operas. Aided by her English
common-law husband, St Clair Bayfield, she worked tirelessly to
support the city's musical life. Many young singers owed their
start to Florence, but she too yearned to perform and began giving
regular recitals that quickly attracted a cult following. And yet
nothing could prepare the world for the astonishing climax of her
career when, at the age of seventy-six, she performed at the most
hallowed concert hall in America. In Florence Foster Jenkins,
Jasper Rees tells her extraordinary story, which inspired the film
starring Meryl Streep and Hugh Grant, and directed by Stephen
Frears. This remarkable book also includes Nicholas Martin's funny,
moving and inspirational screenplay.
