EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enchanting presence of tenor Nicola Zerola, born in Naples, Italy in 1876. The image, taken circa 1912, showcases Zerola in the prime of his career, exuding confidence and charisma as he gazes off into the distance. With his expressive face and intense gaze, it's easy to imagine the passion and emotion he brought to the stage as he sang the beloved arias of Italian opera. Born in Naples, the birthplace of opera, Zerola was surrounded by the rich musical heritage of his homeland from an early age. He began his musical training as a choirboy in the city's famous Sansevero Chapel Choir, and later studied at the Conservatorio di San Pietro a Majella. His exceptional vocal abilities soon caught the attention of renowned opera houses throughout Europe, and he quickly rose to prominence as one of the most sought-after tenors of his time. Throughout his illustrious career, Zerola graced the stages of the world's most prestigious opera houses, including La Scala in Milan, the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and the Royal Opera House in London. He was known for his powerful and emotive voice, as well as his ability to convey the deepest emotions through his performances. Despite his international success, Zerola remained deeply connected to his Italian roots, and continued to perform regularly in his native country. He passed away in Naples in 1936, leaving behind a legacy as one of the greatest tenors of the early 20th century. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of his enduring talent and the indelible mark he left on the world of opera.
