Claudio Bonoldi (26 October 1783 – 14 February 1846 ) was an Italian tenor.

Musical career

[edit]

Bonoldi started his career as a lyric tenor, particularly suited to cover roles in opera buffa. Over the time, when his vocal timbre became darker and more resonant, he interpreted more dramatic parts, such as Pollione in Vincenzo Bellini's Norma. He also sang the roles of bass, such as Assur in Semiramide by Gioachino Rossini and Don Giovanni by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. His voice was categorised as baritenor.[1]

He studied singing in his hometown with maestro Giacomo Carcani (1734–1820) and perfected his vocal training with maestro B. Gherardi. He began his career in 1803 at Teatro d'Angennes in Turin performing in parts of second half character. He made his debut at Teatro alla Scala in 1811 as Peronio in the premiere performance of Giuseppe Farinelli's Annibale in Capua. Rossini wrote for him the role of Giocondo for La pietra del paragone that was premiered on 26 September 1812 at La Scala.[2]

Bonoldi has performed in many noted opera houses around Italy such as Teatro San Carlo in Naples, Teatro Argentina in Rome, Teatro Sant'Agostino in Genoa, Teatro Comunale di Bologna, Teatro Ducale in Parma, Teatro Carcano in Milan, Teatro la Fenice in Venice, Teatro Regio in Turin, Teatro Comunale in Trieste, Teatro della Società in Rovigo, Teatro Avvalorati in Livorno, Teatro Filarmonico in Verona, Teatro Municipale in Piacenza, Teatro lirico in Padova, Teatro Riccardi in Bergamo and Teatro Municipale in Cuneo.

Public success that he achieved in Italy allowed him to engage in theaters around France and Spain, where he received the nomination of Virtuoso da Camera from the King of Spain.[3]

He retired from stage in 1842 and later teach opera singing at Milan Conservatory. He died in Lombardy's capital in 1846.
