Zelia Trebelli-Bettini
Zelia Trebelli-Bettini (1836–1892) Mme Trebelli's artistry was greatly admired by George Bernard Shaw, who wrote about her a number of times in his various reviews. In particular, he admired her interpretations and her exemplary English diction, rare for a non-native English speaker.
In March 1863, in Paris, she married Alexandre Bettini, a lyric artist.[5]
Her daughter Antonia (originally Antoinette) Dolores Trebelli (b.1864, Paris.[6] d.1951, Stroud, England[7]) was a distinguished soprano, and as "Madame or Mademoiselle Dolores" was well received in England,[8] Australia and New Zealand.[9]
