Venanzio Rauzzini (19 December 1746 – 8 April 1810)[1] was an Italian castrato, composer, pianist, singing teacher and concert impresario. He is said to have first studied singing under a member of the Sistine Chapel Choir.[2] He was a cantante soprano at the Socio Accademico of the Accademia di Santa Cecilia in Rome.[3] He studied with Giuseppe Santarelli in Rome.[4] Though unlikely, it has been suggested that Rauzzini may not in fact have been a castrato, but rather had an endocrine condition that prevented his voice from breaking, hence his many affairs as he was thought to be "safe".[5] That said, scholars such as Paul Rice and Brianna Robertson-Kirkland refute this idea.[6]
