Kelly, Michael

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.02 sec.

Kelly, Michael (1762–1826)

Irish tenor, actor, and composer. Kelly made his operatic debut in Naples, Italy, in 1781. He began composing dramatic works in 1789, and produced over 60. His entertaining Reminiscences (1826), though not fully reliable, contain valuable information on his contemporaries, especially Mozart.

Kelly studied with Michael Arne and others, and went to Naples in 1779 to study with Fedele Fenaroli (1730–1818) and Giuseppe Aprile (1732–1813). At the Court Opera in Vienna, Austria, 1784–87, he was the first Basilio and Curzio in Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro (1786). He returned to London in 1787.
