María de Montserrat Bibiana Concepción Caballé Folch (Barcelona, 12 de abril de 1933-Ib., 6 de octubre de 2018), conocida como Montserrat Caballé, fue una cantante lírica de ópera española con tesitura de soprano. Considerada una de las más grandes sopranos del siglo XX, fue admirada especialmente por su técnica vocal y por sus interpretaciones del repertorio belcantista. En cierta ocasión, preguntaron a Maria Callas qué cantantes podrían sucederla, y ella contestó: «Only Caballé...» («Solo Caballé...»).
