Summary/Abstract: The article presents information arranged in chronological order on the professional and personal contacts of M. Cebotari with R. Strauss during the decade between 1931 and 1941. This was the time of their close collaboration and communication. During this period, M. Cebotari devoted her attention mainly to coloratura and lyrical soprano roles from operas composed by K. Strauss, showing a remarkable talent and abilities to work. Cebotari's achievements in these roles soon afterwards allowed her to take a leading place among the best singers of pre-war Europe. The article is well supported with the quotes of her contemporaries, and with reviews from the newspapers of that time.
