Nicola Martinucci (born 28 March 1941) is an Italian opera singer, particularly noted for his performances in the spinto tenor of roles Calaf in Turandot, Radamès in Aida, and the title role in Andrea Chénier.
In 1966 he had won the Viotti International Music Competition which led to further debuts in Italian opera houses.
[3][1][2] Outside his native Italy, Martinucci made his debut at the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires in 1976 as Des Grieux in Manon Lescaut and appeared there again in 1977 as Calaf, in 1978 in the title role of Don Carlo, and in 1979 as Rodolfo in La bohème.
He made his debut at London's Royal Opera House in 1985 as Dick Johnson in La fanciulla del West.
