He was known by the stage name Valentini. He sang the role of Eustazio at the première of Handel’s '' Rinaldo'', the role of Silvio at the premiere of ''Il pastor fido'', and the role of Egeo at the first performance of '' Teseo''.

Urbani was the first castrato to sing regularly in London, where he created a sensation''Interculturalism and resistance in the London theater, ...
