Born in Arco, in the Italian province of Trento, Nicola Ulivieri studied singing at the Bolzano Conservatory. The bass-baritone made his debut in 1993 in I Quattro Rusteghi, in an Aslico production in Milan.

He then won competitions in Spoleto and Riva del Garda and went on to sing at houses such as the Teatro alla Scala, the Salzburg Festival and the Metropolitan Opera in New York. His repertoire includes operas by Rossini, Mozart and Donizetti.
