^ A nice and famous aria addition to the thread!

Today while skimming through operatic arias online, I happened to listen to a beautiful opera singer named Maria Callas:

Maria Callas sings the aria "Ebben? Ne andrò lontana?" by Catalani
She has wonderful vocal range and control and a lovely tone as heard in this aria about loss. I read on Wikipedia that my appreciation of her voice is a common response, since she is one of most famous opera singers of the 1900s:

Thanks for the informative info! My roommate in college was an opera singer, and believe it or not, I am just now understanding what an aria is.
