Freni was married for many years to the Bulgarian bass Nicolai Ghiaurov, with whom she performed and recorded. 　　Freni was born into a working-class family in Modena; her mother and tenor Luciano Pavarotti's mother worked together and an aunt was the soprano Valentina Bartolomasi. She was a musically gifted child, and when 10 years old sang "Un bel dì vedremo" in a radio competition; the tenor Beniamino Gigli warned her, however, that she risked ruining her voice and advised her to give up singing until she was older. She resumed singing at the age of 17. 　　米雷拉·弗雷妮 （Mirella Freni,1935-），着名意大利女高音歌唱家。受教于着名声乐教师康波加里阿尼，1955年在家乡初演歌剧《卡门》中的米卡埃拉，后在意大利各地方歌剧院演出。 　　米雷拉·弗雷妮 （Mirella Freni,1935-），着名意大利女高音歌唱家。受教于着名声乐教师康波加里阿尼，1955年在家乡初演歌剧《卡门》中的米卡埃拉，后在意大利各地方歌剧院演出。1960年以扮演歌剧《唐·璜》中的采琳娜，在格林德伯恩歌剧节上博得好评。1963年在米兰·斯卡拉歌剧院成功地塑造了《艺术家的生涯》中咪咪的形象，奠定了在歌剧界的地位，1965年登上纽约大都会歌剧院的舞台。 　　她的嗓音清澈，表情动人，给人以真挚、细腻、亲切之感 　　擅长扮演意、法歌剧中的抒情角色，也能胜任《奥赛罗》中苔丝德蒙娜等抒情-戏剧型角色
