during his career, cotogni was an especial favorite of verdi's, who praised him for the beauty, warmth and strength of his voice, as well as for the emotional intensity which he brought to his musical interpretations. he sang most of the major verdi baritone roles and took part in the first italian staging of "don carlo", in bologna in 1867, under the supervision of the composer. verdi, wanting to test out the abilities of cotogni, privately heard him in several of the key pieces from "don carlo". when rehearsing the phrases leading up to the duet "dio, che nell'alma infondere", cotogni deviated from what verdi had written, and though verdi remarked on it, he accepted cotogni's change, saying that it was actually better, with the result that the markings were changed in the new editions of the score. it became well known that verdi was moved to tears by cotogni's singing of rodrigo's death scene at this test rehearsal. many who knew cotogni admired him for his almost extreme modesty and humility; verdi was no different, only teasing him about it with his own nickname for him—"mio ignorantino" ("my little ignoramus"). even after his retirement from opera, he continued singing in benefits and concerts, the very last of which was in 1904, when cotogni was 73.
