Pietro Platania (5 April 1828 – 26 April 1907) was an Italian composer and music educator.[1]

Platania was born at Catania and was a student of Pietro Raimondi.[2] Beginning in 1882, he was the maestro di cappella of Milan Cathedral, and from 1885 to 1902, he served as the director of the Naples Conservatory. As a composer, he was known for his orchestral and church music. He was considered by Gioacchino Rossini and Giuseppe Verdi, among others, to be the greatest master of counterpoint of his day; the latter invited him to contribute to the Messa per Rossini, for which he wrote the Sanctus. He died in Naples.[1]
