HASER, CHARLOTTE HENRIETTA,

A celebrated singer, born at Leipsic, in 1789, was the daughter of the director of music in the university there. In 1804 she was engaged at the Italian opera at Dresden. Her superior voice, her fine execution, and her attempt to combine the advantages of the German and Italian methods, gave her a brilliant success. Distinguished for the correctness of her morals and her great modesty, she was received with applause at all the most celebrated theatres in Italy and Germany. She married Vera, a lawyer at Rome, and retired from the stage.
