Alessandro Moreschi was born on 11 November 1858 to Luigi Lorenzo Moreschi (1840โ€“1897) and Rosa Maria Potelli, a Roman Catholic family in the town of Monte Compatri in the Papal States, near Frascati (Lazio).[citation needed] It is possible that he was born with an inguinal hernia, for which castration was still thought to be a cure in 19th-century Italy.[2] Another possibility is that he was castrated later, around 1865, which would have been more in line with the centuries-old practice of castrating vocally talented boys well before puberty. In any case, much later in life, he referred to his enjoyment of singing as a boy in the chapel of the Madonna del Castagno, just outside his native town.[3]

Early career

Young Alessandro Moreschi (c. 1880).

 

It seems likely that Moreschi's singing abilities came to the notice of Nazareno Rosati, formerly a member of the Sistine Chapel choir, who was acting as a scout for new talent, and took him to Rome in about 1870.[3]
