Perhaps no name in all of opera history is more familiar than that of Maria Callas (1923-1977), who in the 1950s became the first real superstar in opera since Enrico Caruso a quarter of a century before. At the peak of her career, Callas astonished all hearers with the power and accuracy of her runs, staccatos, and trills. Her uniquely distinctive voice was equal to the most challenging music, and she imbued every phrase with dramatic potency.
