Date of birth and death unknown. Italian ballet teacher, choreographer, and opera director. Born in Milan. Studied at the La Scala Ballet School and joined La Scala. From 1901 onwards, he worked as a choreographer at music halls in London and other venues. In 1912 (Taisho 1), he was invited to Japan to teach at the Imperial Theater's opera department, where he performed Offenbach's Orpheus in the Underworld and other works. His students included Rikizo Taya, Baku Ishii, Masao Takada (1895-1929), Seiko Takada, Kintaro Shimizu (1889-1932), and Nobuko Hara (1893-1979). After the Western theatre section (later renamed the opera section) of the Imperial Theatre was disbanded (1916), they opened the "Royal Hall" in Akasaka and staged operas such as "La Traviata" but it was a failure. They disbanded in 1918 and went to America, but their whereabouts after that are unknown. They had a major impact on the world of Western dance and opera in Japan.
