After 18 successful seasons of being a leading soprano at the Metropolitan Opera and other prestigious houses around the world, you would think she would be as famous as Jessye Norman or Kathleen Battle. However, due to a lack of an extensive recording discography, she was not able to reach opera fans at the level her extraordinary talent deserves. Fortunately, there are many audio and video clips here on You Tube of her performances from the opera stage, television appearances, and recitals.
Remarkable
She was amazing voice and interpretation!
This is absolutely gorgeous singing. I wonder why she is not as famous as her peers from the same timeframe.

I always thought Leona had a remarkably beautiful instrument, but I often found her interpretation bland. Very physically beautiful also. Brava!
