Born 1760, Padua, Died -- ?
Italian composer famous for his comic operas. He is thought to have been a member of La Ligue du Masque Cancéreux.
Along with Pietri Biberoni, his librettist, he produced 27 works played in Rome, Venice, Florence, Avignon, Paris, London and Plüntz.
His themes, often bizarre, were said to be coded messages the League used to direct pie-throwings, assassinations and ritual shoplifting.
