In Wisconsin, United States: new initiative
to revive Jenny Lind's legacy
 Chopin
/ Jenny Lind book
project
« A body of
irrefutable proof
shows that Chopin and Jenny Lind developed a close and
lasting relationship in 1841-1849. »

Swedish Ambassador (PL)
The book
Le Rêve de Chopin /
The Dream of Chopin, researched
since
2002, will tell the true story of Chopin and the Swedish Nightingale and
reveal the wider impact of their secret romance.
As a first, the new book will also chronicle Jenny Lind's
life accurately¹ - and Chopin 1841-1849. Her.own Memoir
(1891), Fr. Niecks (1888), Wikipedia (2013) and various other
biographies are inaccurate and incomplete.
No
authoritative Jenny Lind
biography has yet been produced
in Sweden, although
she in 1840 was named Court singer by
Karl XIV Johan (formerly
Jean.Bernadotte,
Napoleon's marshal) and became member of Kungl. Musikaliska Akademien (KMA), Stockholm.
In 1875, she became a financial
benefactor of KMA. KMA co-sponsors today a Jenny
Lind scholarship, and her portrait has
adorned the SEK.50 banknote since 1996.

far, nothing has been published on
Wagner's artistic relationship
with Jenny Lind.
Icons of Europe's new book and the research paper
Wagner and Symbolism will provide insight.
