Bruno Landi (1900-1968) was an Italian tenor who sang for many years at the Metropolitan Opera. His repertory included Italian lyric and character roles, with particular value in ensemble opera.

In the Pristine catalogue he appears in Donizetti’s L’elisir d’amore with Bidú Sayão, Salvatore Baccaloni and Ettore Panizza.

Landi’s artistry belonged to the practical theatre tradition, where clarity, style and timing matter as much as individual glamour. Such singers help keep comic and lyric opera alive as conversation.

This is a modest entry, but a deserved one. Landi’s page records a working Met singer whose craft formed part of the house’s daily musical machinery.
