Hedevig Faaborg Quiding née Springborg (16 September 1867 – 3 October 1936) was a Danish operatic soprano, voice instructor and music critic. When she was 19, she made her debut at the Royal Danish Opera as Philine in Ambroise Thomas' Mignon but then moved to Germany where over the next ten years she performed some 40 roles in the opera houses of Berlin, Munich and Nuremberg. On returning to Denmark, from the turn of the century she retired from the stage to become an effective voice and stagecraft instructor and from the 1920s an influential music critic. In later years, she concentrated on writing and on making radio broadcasts.[1][2][3]
