Josefina Dušková (also known as Josepha Duschek, originally Hambacher)

(baptised on 6. 3. 1754 Prague †8. 1. 1824 Prague)

Soprano

She studied singing, piano and composition with František Xavera Dušek (1731-99) and married him in 1776. In 1777, the married couple met with Mozart in Salzburg. Mozart was later their guest in Bertram where they lived in Prague. Mozart composed the aria Bella mia fiamma, addio for Josefina in 1787 during his visit of Bertram. Although Josefina Dušková was a concert and choir singer, she played an important role in the promotion of the operas of Mozart and Naumann. She emerged with her coloratura art and with her famous dramatic interpretation.
