Background notes
Archive material and source history
Giuseppe di Stefano was born in Motta Sant'Anastasia, Sicily in 1921. He studied at the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan and made his operatic debut at La Scala in 1946. His voice had a particular beauty that made him stand out among Italian tenors of his generation.
He became known for roles like the Duke of Mantua in "Rigoletto" and Alfredo Germont in "La Traviata." But it was his recording of the Neapolitan song "Addio Mia Bella Napoli" that reached audiences beyond opera houses. That recording, along with others like "Amore Scusami" and "Fenesta Che Lucive," showed how he could bring something personal to folk material.
Di Stefano had a reputation for being outspoken about the music industry, which sometimes created friction. He recorded several albums in the 1950s and early 1960s, including "Giuseppe di Stefano Sings Italian Opera" and "Di Stefano Recital."
