? Giovanni Paisiello (1740-1816) is one of the key composers of the
Neapolitan School, primarily famous for his vast amount of operas
written when in the service of Ferdinand IV of Naples.
? Paisiello’s instrumental output is also substantial, and it was written for
the ever growing bourgeoisie, for domestic use by advanced amateurs.
His 6 Flute Quartets are delightful works, full of charming, sunny
melodies and sparkling virtuosity, in the true tradition of the Neapolitan
School, as comparable with Cimarosa and Guglielmi.
? The Italian ensemble Il Demetrio specialises in Baroque and Early Classical
music, playing on authentic instruments.
