Lorenzo Alvary (1909-1996) was a Hungarian-born American bass, active at the Metropolitan Opera and in concert repertory. He appeared in a wide range of opera and choral works.

In the Pristine catalogue he appears in Beethoven with Toscanini and in Bizet’s Carmen under Beecham at the Met.

Alvary’s singing brought firmness, clarity and stage reliability to both operatic and choral-symphonic settings.

His page is justified by repeated catalogue presence and career standing. Alvary gives the Met and Toscanini shelves a grounded bass line.
