Opera singer and theatre director Carl Stenborg was born in Stockholm on 8 September 1752, and died there on 1 August 1813. He joined his father's acting troupe while still in his teens, and in 1780 took over his theatre, which he went on to direct until 1799. Carl Stenborg was employed as a singer at the Royal Swedish Opera between 1773 and 1806, and was one of its most important lyrical actors. The majority of Stenborg's own compositions are comic operas or songs for such operas. He became a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Music in 1782.
