BAGNOLESI, Anna. An Italian contralto, who sang in London, 1732, in Handel's operas. She made her first appearance, Jan. 15, in 'Ezio,' and sang subsequently in 'Sosarme,' in a revival of 'Flavio,' and in 'Acis and Galatea' at its first public performance, June 10, and the succeeding occasions in that year. She also appeared in a reprise of Ariosti's 'Cajo Marzio Coriolano.' Nothing is now known of her after-career.
