Giulia Frasi (also Frassi[1][2]) was born c. 1730 and died in 1772[3] or after May 1774.[4] She was an Italian soprano who was primarily active in London. She sang in every one of Handel's English oratorios (with the exception of Semele), including various world premières for which the composer wrote roles specifically for her.[2][5]
