Italian composer. He began his musical activity in Tuscany and Liguria.
One of his first operas, 'Il semplice riflessivo e gli astuti furiosi',
was performed in 1798 at the Teatro della Pallacorda in Florence. In
1807 he settled in Cagliari where he was active as a 'maestro al
cembalo' at the Regio Teatro and from the following year at the Cappella
Civica and again at the Regio Teatro, but now as a composer. In June
1810 he moved to Sassari, where he held the position of 'maestro di
cappella' of the Sassari's Cathedral, post he preserved until his death
in 1820. During his stay in Sassari he wrote two operas, a festive
cantata and some liturgical works, among them the foremost 'Messa a tre
voci con accompagnamento di piena orchestra' (1805).
