Gerhard Schepelern Giuseppe Siboni, Cassa di Risparmio di Forlì, 1995
Siboni studied voice in his home town with the castrato Sebastiano Folicaldi. The stages of his
career are perfectly obvious from the above chronology; in addition to that, he also appeared at the Mariinskij in St.
Petersburg in 1818.
His specialty were the operas of Paër, and he was also tremendously successful as Licinio in La vestale.
After his career, he settled in Copenhagen in 1819 (King Christian III was a huge Siboni fan), where he was royal voice teacher,
director of the Royal Opera House, and founding director of the Royal Conservatory (1825). One of his pupils was basso Peter
Schram (1819–95), the oldest singer on record.
