Elly Ruth Guldbæk Degerbøl née Guldbæk Jensen (1919–2006) was a Danish operatic soprano. After training at Copenhagen's Folketeatret and Det Ny Teater, she joined the Royal Danish Theatre where she made her début in 1947 as Zerline in Don Giovanni. After a long series of successful soubrette and coloratura roles, she sang Sophie in Der Rosenkavalier at Covent Garden on three occasions in the early 1950s. Guldbæk was honoured as a Royal Chamber Singer in 1955. She was equally successful for her concert hall recitals.
