(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)
To sing bel canto opera is supremely difficult, calling for exceptional refinement of tone, agility, legato, range, and breath control.
Several contemporary singers who are well-known for their bel canto technique are the soprano Edith Gruberova, the mezzo-soprano Cecelia Bartoli, and the counter-tenor David Daniels.
The soprano Maria Callas was the best-known bel canto singer of the postwar period.
