Renata Scotto (1934-2023)
We've lost one of the greats of opera. Renata Scotto was one of the greatest sopranos of the 20th century. She had a beautiful voice but also knew when to sacrifice beauty of tone for dramatic effect. She had a hell of a career, starting with light lyrical roles like Adina in Elisir d'amore, moving on to the more dramatic roles in the bel canto repertoire, then to her bread and butter, the great soprano roles of Verdi and Puccini. She had a later career as stage director and educator, as well as moving on to different repertory including German roles like Kundry and the Marschallin.
How big was she? She was one of the last sopranos, if not the last, to earn top billing over Pavarotti and Domingo. In fact there was a memorable diva moment when, during a performance of La Gioconda, the stage manager had the temerity to allow Pavarotti the final solo bow in an opera where she was the main character, she screamed at them in front of TV cameras and never sang with Pavarotti again.
Her greatest role, in my opinion, was as the title character in Madama Butterfly, which in my opinion has never been bettered.
For a sample of her greatness, try the end of the letter scene: it's at 1:19:00 in the below video.
