Clorinda Corradi

Initially, her father enrolled her at the Cappella Musicale di Urbino under the direction of music teacher and composer Filippo Celli.

She began her career at the Recanati theatre in 1823 with the Rossini's operas L'Italiana in Algeri and La Cenerentola and was received well by audiences and critics.

She also sang the trouser role of Luigi at the premiere of Donizetti's Ugo, conte di Parigi at La Scala Theatre in Milan.

In October 1835, with the help of her agent and husband Raffaele Pantanelli, she went to La Habana, Cuba, with her brother Nestore Corradi and, on November 14, 1836 she made her debut in a new production of Francesco Morlacchi's Tebaldo ed Isolina.

Between 1847 and 1856, critical reviews of the Lyrical Company are limited to performances in Santiago except for some brief references to those in other provincial cities such as Valparaíso.

During her life she gave hundreds of performances of Vincenzo Bellini, Saverio Mercadante, Donizetti, Verdi, Carlo Coccia, Nicola Vaccai and Gioacchino Rossini.
