Ignazio Fiorillo

Ignatio Fiorillo ( born May 11, 1715 in Naples, † June 1787 in Fritzlar ) was an Italian opera composer and Kapellmeister in Braunschweig and Kassel.

Life

Ignatio Fiorillo was a composition pupil of Leonardo Leo and Francesco Durante at one of the four conservatories of Naples. 1736 was his first opera in Venice, the dramma per musica Mandane premiered. Then he traveled aimlessly through Europe. 1753 his third son, Federigo Fiorillo was born in Braunschweig. At first he was a member of the theater group by Filippo Nicolini in Braunschweig. Ignazio Fiorillo was finally appointed in 1754 a court orchestra in Braunschweig. However, he left in 1762 in Braunschweig and was at the court of Landgrave Friedrich II in Kassel again Kapellmeister. After his retirement, the composer lived in retirement from 1780 until his death in June 1787 Fritzlar.

His music draws in good moments a melody of dramatic expressiveness from, but it is superficial in general and is therefore rarely performed today and is considered to be rediscovered.
