Summary/Abstract: In the jubilee year of Timisoara's opera scene, 75 years after the first performance, we pay a pious homage through this work in the memory of the unique voices in their timbral diversity of two exceptional dramatic sopranos: Margareta Nica Popescu and Michaela Grama Ștefan. Among the many roles performed, the memorable interpretations of the role of Aida, from the opera of the same title by G. Verdi. This emblematic inaugural performance of the first opera scene in Banat, was taken over by the two personalities in the title role, amplifying over the years the fame of the newly founded opera. Through the main roles played by both opera artists, we remember the roles of Verdi's operas: Abigail from Nabucco, Amelia from Bal Mascat and Leonora from Trubadur as well as Floria Tosca from Puccini's opera of the same name and others. Through their pedagogical qualities, the two sopranos contributed to the development of the vocal art and of the post-december roumanian singing school in Banat .
