Eva Marton (1943- )

Eva Marton is a Hungarian dramatic soprano best known for her roles in Tosca, Turandot, and Wagnerian Opera.

One of my favorite recordings of hers is of the opera Violanta, an unknown by Korngold. The love duet at the end of this opera is one of the most STUNNING duets of 20th century opera.
