Julius Prott

Julius Prott, known variously on the stage or in recordings as Giulio Perotti, Julius Perotti, Jules Perotti, or Julian Pierotti, (13 March 1841 – 28 February 1901) was a German tenor and horticulturist. He had an active international career as an opera singer from 1863 until his death in 1901. He used many different stage names to obscure his German identity, passing himself off as Italian and French in ancestry. His native city of Ueckermünde hosts the annual International Giulio Perotti Singing Competition, named after him. In addition to his work as a singer, he operated a horticultural business in Trieste, Italy, and was highly regarded for his rose cultivation.
