Sorry to abuse the Otakuland with Greek singer and composers! I will post other artists as well.
From Wikipedia:
"Maria Callas, Commendatore OMRI[1] (Greek: Μαρία Κάλλας; December 2, 1923 – September 16, 1977), was an American soprano of Greek origin, and one of the most renowned and influential opera singers of the 20th century. Critics praised her bel canto technique, wide-ranging voice and dramatic gifts."
Some people like her voice some don't. Even among the critics, there's been much dispute. She didn't like her own voice in fact. It's very characteristic and worth listening to if you're into opera and classical music. Hear for yourself!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN9Dipgqdtw Madame Butterfly (one of my favs, recommend its instrumental version too)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rjGwS20V94 Casta Diva
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPHKI5HiDJE Gypsy Song
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoYAcwTWdjo Signore ascolta
She is dead but the voice remains to be a classic. Enjoy :)
