Background: Gasparini, one of the most interesting figures on the Italian musical scene at the turn of the 18th century, was born in Camaiore (Lucca) on 19-Mar-1661. Active primarily in Rome and Venice, he was a member of the Accademia di S Cecilia, and frequented the crème de la crème of Roman musical life, which included Arcangelo Corelli and Bernardo Pasquini.

He was also one of the very few musicians admitted to the Arcadia. An admired pedagogue, his pupils included Benedetto Marcello and Domenico Scarlatti. Gasparini composed operas, oratorios and cantatas, but is best known for his valuable treatise,'L'armonico pratico al cimbalo', published in Venice in 1708. His cantatas (op.1) were published in Rome in 1695, but many others are extant in manuscript.
