Nicola Monti was an Italian tenor, active in opera and recording during the mid-twentieth century. He appeared in several important Italian studio recordings.

In the Pristine catalogue he appears in Callas’s 1957 La Scala recording of Bellini’s La sonnambula.

Monti’s singing brought the clear Italian lyric-tenor line required by Bellini’s long-spun bel canto writing.

His page is justified by career standing and catalogue context. Monti gives the Callas-Bellini shelf a graceful tenor profile.
