Guglielmo Masini (Bass)

Probably he made his debut in 1920. In 1923 he appeared at the Teatro Carcano in Milan as Mefistofele in ‘’Faust’’. The next year, he was in Malta where he sang in ‘’Rigoletto’’, ‘’Faust’’, ‘’La Gioconda’’ and ‘’La Boheme’’. In 1925 he guested in Bologna and sang at the Teatro Verdi in Verdi’s ‘’La Forza del Destino’’. Then he made guest appearances in Cairo and Nice. Probably he retired from the stage  in 1940.
