UGO UGARO (ITALY, 1914 – PARIS, FRANCE, 4 DECEMBER, 1999)
His real name was Ugo
Garbaccio. In 1936, he made his concert debut at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice.
In 1945, he appeared at the Grattacielo and at the Splendor in San Pier d’Arena
in Genoa. It seems he participated only in concerts in Italy. Later, he moved
to France and, under the name Ugo Ugaro, performed at provincial opera houses.
His repertoire included Scarpia in Tosca, Rigoletto, Nelusko in L’Africaine,
Tonio in Pagliacci, Figaro in Il Barbiere di Siviglia, and Renato in Un Ballo
in Maschera. After his retirement, he taught singing in Paris, with
bass-baritone Michael Vier among his pupils. He made a few records for Pacific
in Paris.
