Domenico Salvatori

Domenico Salvatori (27 August 1855 - 11 December 1909) along with Alessandro Moreschi, Domenico Mustafà and Giovanni Cesari, was one of the famous castrati singers of the late 19th century.

Born at Anagni, he first started as a contralto at the Cappella Giulia which he later abandoned in order to enter as a now soprano to the Cappella Sistina. He later became secretary of the Capella for some years, holding his position as a secretary also under the direction of Perosi. A good friend of Alessandro Moreschi, together they often used to visit their contemporary Domenico Mustafà in his retirement. Salvatori died in Rome. He recorded, along with Giovanni Cesari, a few phonograph recordings together with Alessandro Moreschi; but these were only pure choral pieces, and none of them were solo.
