Kiri te Kanawa is famous -- worldwide -- for her voice.
Undoubtedly the most renowned opera singer from NZ is Dame Kiri Janette Te Kanawa.
Kiri Te Kanawa is a famous opera singer, with a creamy soprano voice. She is best known for her exemplary work in Mozart and Strauss opera, although some found her beautiful voice was not matched with equally fine creative interpretation in some of the more famous Italian operas.She is a world famous soprano opera singer.
Since the concept of Sopranos competing with Tenors is weird, there can be no answer to "the best". Jonathon Lemanu, Kiri Te Kanawa, would be a couple, of others. But the list of superior singers in New Zealand would have up to TEN names on it.
Will vary according as to whom you ask. My list would include Truby King, founder of Plunket Society; Edmund Hillary, mountaineer; Ernest Rutherford, scientist; Colin Meads, footballer; Colin McCahon, artist; Kiri te Kanawa, singer; Apirana Ngata, prominent in Maori education and NZ's first Maori graduate.
