Vedic Horoscope for Stratas, Teresa

Canadian opera singer, a soprano of Greek heritage. She studied in Toronto and made her debut there as Mimi in early 1959. She first appeared at the Met later in the year. Since then, her beauty, intelligence, brio and temperament helped to establish her as one of the Met's most important lyrico spinto sopranos, known not only for her vocal pyrotechnics but also for her musical sensitivity and dramatic fire. She continued to sing at the Met and in lead opera houses in Europe, with a debut in Covent Garden in 1961. Greatly admired, she was a most convincing actress, at her best in highly dramatic roles. She was fabulous with Placido Domingo in "La Traviata."Lynne Palmer quotes a mutual friend, from her. (The mutual friend admired her greatly but said she was unstable and erratic. She later told John McKay-Clements she did not remember giving out her data and did not know when she had been born.)
