Corsican Tenor.

César Vézzany was a native of Marseille, where he was born in 1886. A heroic tenor who made his debut at the Opera Comique in 1911, he sang there until World War I engufed France, afterwards emerging at Marseille about 1920. He confined his activities at this period to the big provincial houses, Rue, Nantes, Perignon.

And as late as 1936 we find him singing at Bordeaux, where he had been a prominent singer for many years, singing the later Wagnerian roles amongst us.
A report in 1950 carried the information that Vidzani was teaching at Marseille and Toulon.

It is in an area from the French Siegfried by Rhea.
