Let's make this birthday one to remember.

90 years old (Born on December 15, 1934)

Happy Birthday to the magnificent Raina Kabaivanska! Your voice has soared through opera houses from London’s Royal Opera House to New York's Metropolitan Opera, enchanting audiences with your unforgettable portrayals of Puccini and Verdi heroines. Ever since that dazzling debut in 1962, you've been hitting high notes—and hearts—with unmatched elegance.

Whether you're breaking hearts as Tosca or captivating crowds as Madama Butterfly, your performances remain timeless masterpieces. Today we celebrate not just another year but decades of vocal brilliance and dramatic flair. May you continue inspiring generations—after all, sopranos like fine wine only get better (and louder!) with age!
