Christiane Eda‑Pierre was a French operatic soprano born in Fort‑de‑France, Martinique, who trained at the Conservatoire de Paris and began her professional career in the mid‑20th century specialising in opera and classical repertoire. A colouratura soprano by voice type, her repertoire ranged from baroque and classical works to 20th‑century French opera, and she was associated with the revival of baroque opera in France and regular appearances at major French opera houses.
