Joseph Maas (30 January 1847 in Dartford, England – 16 January 1886 in London) was an English tenor singer.
He became a chorister in Rochester Cathedral. At first studying under J. C. Hopkins and Madame Bodda-Pyne, he went to study in Milan in 1869. In February 1871 he made his first success by taking Sims Reeves's place at a concert in London. In 1878 he became principal tenor in the Carl Rosa Opera Company, his beautiful voice and finished style more than compensating for his poor acting.Template:Sfn
Maas died from rheumatic gout on 16 January 1886.[1]
