The History of José Palet
Born: June 7th 1877
Died: Feb 1st 1946
Spanish Tenor
José Palet was a Spanish tenor popular in Italy and Spain during the first two decades of the century.
I am not aware that he ever sang at Covent Garden or at the Metropolitan, but he was certain to be found regularly at La Scala in Milan, where his clear, penetrating high notes were very popular in such roles as El Gardo, the Duke of Mantua, Hernani, Faust and Royal.
He died in Milan in 1946.
Here he is in his natural element, La Dolores de Quierverda.
