A tenor of the Naples theatres for more than thirty years, from student performances at the conservatory of San Pietro a Majella in 1854 to the San Carlo in 1888. He took the secondary parts there in the Meyerbeer, Donizetti and Verdi repertory, from Bois-Rosé in Les Huguenots in 1862 to Roderigo in Otello in 1888, and created the Conte di Lerma in the Naples Don Carlos in 1872, singing it again in 1888. He sang in more than a dozen premieres in Naples, at the San Carlo and the Teatro Mercadante.
