Antonio Cortis

**Antonio Cortis** was a Spanish tenor who made waves in the opera world during the early 20th century, celebrated for his rich, powerful voice and dramatic flair. Active primarily in the 1920s and 1930s, Cortis became a star in European opera houses, including La Scala in Milan, and was often compared to legends like Enrico Caruso for his passionate performances. His recordings from 1925–1930, featured in releases like *Antonio Cortis (Recorded 1925 - 1930)* and *Lebendige Vergangenheit - Antonio Cortis*, showcase his mastery of Italian and Spanish repertoire, blending technical precision with emotional intensity. Though less widely remembered today, his work remains a treasure for vintage opera enthusiasts, preserving the golden age of bel canto singing. Tracks like those in *Belcanto n. 2* highlight why he’s still praised as one of the era’s standout tenors.
