Helga Pilarczyk (12 March 1926 – 15 September 2011) was a German operatic soprano. Born in Schöningen, she originally trained as a pianist, at Braunschweig and at the ドイツ語:Musikhochschule Hamburg. However, she made her debut as a contralto at the Staatstheater Braunschweig, as Irmentraud in Lortzing's ''Der Waffenschmied'' in 1951. By 1954 to 1955, she emerged as a dramatic soprano at the Hamburg State Opera, where she remained until the 1966/67 season. Pilarczyk became a specialist in works of the twentieth century, including those of ''Salome'', ''ドイツ語:Die Frau ohne Schatten'' (as the Dyer's Wife), ''The Fiery Angel'', ''Il prigioniero'', ''ラテン語:Oedipus rex'', ''Wozzeck'', ''Lulu'', ''ドイツ語:Erwartung'', and ''The Flood''. She appeared in Zürich, Berlin, at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden (as Salome in 1958), Florence (''ドイツ語:Erwartung'' and ''Wozzeck''), the Glyndebourne Festival (as Composer in ''Ariadne auf Naxos'', 1958), Paris Opéra (''Wozzeck'', 1963), La Scala (''Lulu'', 1963), and Vienna. In 1965, the soprano debuted both at the Metropolitan Opera (''Wozzeck'', under Karl Böhm) and in Chicago (''Wozzeck'', with Sir Geraint Evans, under Bruno Bartoletti). In 1967, she left the stage in order to devote herself to her family, and later taught at the ドイツ語:Musikhochschule Hamburg. Her discography consists principally of recordings of ''ドイツ語:Erwartung'' (conducted by Hermann Scherchen and Robert Craft, both in 1960) and ''Pierrot lunaire'' (conducted by Pierre Boulez in 1961). Opera Depot has issued her 1963 performance of ''Il tabarro'', conducted by Alberto Erede, on Compact Disc. The ドイツ語:Kammersängerin died, following a brief illness, in Hamburg, at the age of eighty-six, leaving behind two children. Helga Pilarczyk is buried in Hamburg. == References == * ''The Metropolitan Opera Encyclopedia'', edited by David Hamilton, Simon and Schuster, 1987.
