Maria Callas - Maria Anna Cecilia Sofia Kalos, cognome originario Kalogheropoulou (New York 1923 - Parigi 1977)

Gifted with a particular voice, which combined a unique timbre with considerable volume, great extension and agility, she contributed to the rediscovery of the Italian repertoire of the first half of the 19th century (the so-called "belcanto renaissance"), in particular that of Vincenzo Bellini and Gaetano Donizetti, of which he was able to give a personal interpretation in a dramatic key (his interpretations of Norma and Lucia di Lammermoor are fundamental in this regard) through the rediscovery of 19th-century vocality defined as bravura singing, which he applied to all repertoires and for which the term dramatic soprano d'agilità was coined. She also successfully rediscovered titles that had fallen out of the repertoire due to a lack of suitable singers, such as Armida and Il Turco in Italia by Rossini, Il pirata by Bellini, Anna Bolena by Donizetti, Alceste and Ifigenia in Tauride by Gluck, La Vestale by Spontini, Macbeth by Verdi, Medea by Cherubini. Her artistic and media success built a myth around her, giving her the name of Divina. Autograph photographic portrait of the famous Greek soprano in the role of Anna Bolena at the Teatro Alla Scala during the Opera Season 1957-1958. Photo Piccagliani. Bodly signature not particularly visible because it is in the dark part of the photograph.
