Francesco Durante

1684 - 1755

 

 

Disdaining the taste for opera that fueled the careers of his Neapolitan

contemporaries, Francesco Durante rose to fame as a composer of sacred

music. At the same time, he earned high accolades as the teacher of such

future luminaties as Niccolo Piccinni—a vocation which may have afforded

him some degree of escape from the nagging of his shrewish wife.
