Je regarde #Farinelli et je me demandais si on était obligatoirement castrer pour être castra. Est ce qu'il existe un équivalent de nos jours ?
DYK #castrati, such as #Farinelli, gained fame because the church began outlawing women singers (and actors) in the sixth century? The prohibition lasted until the 20thC. The last #castrato sang in 1922 at the Vatican. HowSexGotScrewedUp.com
El 24 de enero de 1705 nacía el célebre castrato italiano #Farinelli, representado por el pintor Battaglioli en la obra "Fernando VI y Bárbara de Braganza en los jardines de Aranjuez"
