Nicolae Secăreanu (Romanian pronunciation: [nikoˈla.e sekəˈre̯anu]; 12 July 1901 – 29 September 1992) was a well-known Romanian opera bass singer and actor.

Born in Nanov, Teleorman County, he attended the Matei Basarab High School in Bucharest and then the Law School at the University of Bucharest. He made his operatic debut on January 31, 1931 as Pimen in Mussorsky's Boris Godunov. Memorable were his 1942 performance in Berlioz's La damnation de Faust, conducted by George Enescu, and his 1945 reprise of the Boris Godunov opera, this time in the title role.[1]
