Renée Fleming

American soprano (born February 14, 1959 in Indiana, Pennsylvania) who sings principally opera and jazz.
She has also released a number of popular music recordings on the Polygram and Decca labels. She also appears on the soundtrack of the 2003 film "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" in which she sings in Sindarin.
She appeared on the children's show "Sesame Street" where she sang a very lively rendition of "Caro nome" from Rigoletto, replacing the traditional words with some intended to help children learn to count forwards to and backwards from five.
