He died only eight years later, leaving behind several lengthy operas and sacred choral works. Ironically, it was the brief theatrical intermezzo La serva padrona that guaranteed him immortality; in the decades following Pergolesi's death it was used as the model for an entirely new school of operatic composition. |
