Gabriella Gatti (July 5, 1908 - October 22, 2003) was an Italian operatic soprano, primarily based in Italy and associated with the Italian repertory. Born Gabriella Pesci in Rome, where she studied voice and piano. She made her stage debut in 1934, at the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma in Monteverdi's ''Orfeo''. Thereafter she quickly appeared in all the major opera houses throughout Italy, most often in Rome and Florence, but also sang at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, from 1938 to 1947. Her voice was lyrical in character, graceful in timbre and expression, and she stood as an example of the refined, classical style at a time when the opposite manner prevailed among Italian sopranos. She was admired in roles such as; Countess Almaviva, Semiramide, Mathilde, Desdemona, etc. She sang Marie at the Italian premiere of ''Wozzeck'' in Rome, in 1942. She can be heard in a few recordings, notably in ''Le nozze di Figaro'', opposite Sesto Bruscantini, Alda Noni, Italo Tajo, and as Fenena in ''Nabucco''. ==Sources== * ''Grove Music Online'', Rodolfo Celletti, Oxford University Press, April 2008. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gabriella Gatti」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
