Luigi Ottolini (23 August 1925, Milan - 16 March 2002, Suardi)[1] was an Italian operatic tenor noted for his appearances in the 1960 recording of Verdi's Requiem with Joan Sutherland, Fiorenza Cossotto and Carlo Maria Giulini,[2] the 1961 Turin recording of Verdi's Don Carlos with Boris Christoff[3] and the 1963 recording of scenes from Verdi's Aida with Birgit Nilsson.[4] Though celebrated in the 1960s, Ottolini is now barely known.[5][6][7][8][9][10] He appeared as Radames in Verdi's Aida for the Welsh National Opera in 1971, reprising the same role in 1974 in the Baths of Caracalla, Rome.
