Leonardo Cortellazzi was born in 1980 in Mantua, and studied singing at the Arrigo Boito Conservatory in Parma and at the Accademia of the Teatro alla Scala in Milan.
In 2003 he made his stage début as Schmidt in Massenet’s Werther at the Teatro Magnani in Fidenza. His wide repertoire includes Mozart and Rossini rôles. With Mozart’s Ferrando, a rôle for which he was victorious in the International Giuseppe di Stefano Competition, he undertook his first major rôle at La Scala.
Other engagements include Don Basilio in Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro. At the Rossini in Wildbad Festival in Germany he sang the rôle of Un gondoliere in Rossini’s Otello (Naxos 8.660275–76).
