Giovanni Battista Pergolesi
During the eighteenth century, decoration and elegance were the predominant elements of style in the art and music of Europe. ... In music, this approach was manifested in the galant style, as represented in the compositions of Giovanni Battista Pergolesi, among others.
Giovanni Battista Pergolesi was born in the year 1710. At the young age of sixteen, Giovanni was sent to the Conservatorio dei Poveri di Gesł Cristo in Naples where he studied with Durante and Feo. Pergolesi had a remarkable ability for improvising on the violin. ... Pergolesi was appointed maestro di cappella to Prince Ferdinando Colonna Stigliano in 1732, and the same year his commedia musicale Lo firate nnamorato was quite successful.
