Maria Callas Collection - Maria Callas

Maria Callas is perhaps the most renowned opera singer of the 1950s. She combined an impressive bel canto technique with great dramatic gifts. An extremely versatile singer, her repertoire ranged from classical opera seria to the bel canto operas of Donizetti, Bellini, and Rossini. She was equally skilled with the works of Verdi and Puccini and, in her early career, the music dramas of Wagner. Her remarkable musical and dramatic talents led to her being hailed "La Divina". This collection brings together a significant number of the arias she championed throughout her long and distinguished career.
