Prima donna
prima donna,是意大利文中「首席女性」的意思,通常用于歌剧剧团之中。这个专有名词通常会用在指涉歌剧剧团中的首席女歌手,也是在演出时会赋予重要角色的演出工作的人物。「prima donna」通常是歌剧剧团中的女高音,但并非绝对。相对应来指称首席男歌手的专有名词则是「primo uomo」,在歌剧剧团中几乎都是由男高音担任。
In opera or commedia dell'arte, a prima donna[ˈpriːma ˈdɔnna] (plural: prime donne; Italian for "first lady") is the leading female singer in the company, the person to whom the prime roles would be given. The prima donna was normally, but not necessarily, a soprano. The corresponding term for the male lead (almost always a tenor) is primo uomo.
