Benedetta Rosmunda Pisaroni


Benedetta Rosmunda Pisaroni was an Italian soprano who later became a contralto.
Active on the operatic stage from 1811 to 1831, she suffered from smallpox in the early years of her career which caused a change in her extended vocal range.
Appearing in Bergamo, Padua, Bologna, Venice, Milan, Rome and eventually Paris in the 1810s and 1820s, she was closely associated with the operas of Gioachino Rossini and Giacomo Meyerbeer.
