Rino Oldrati
born Milano 1890
Oldrati probably made his debut in 1922 at Faenza in Norma. It seems that his repertory was mostly limited to Norma and
Samson et Dalila.
He was married to Vera Amerighi-Rutili (22 August 1896 Nasacchio – 13 May 1952 Pisa), who was a Norma specialist. This could maybe
explain why he sang primarily Pollione.
Strangely, he appears also as "Salvatore Oldrati", although Rino is anything but a diminutive of Salvatore.
