Vincenzo Llimitedio Ciampi

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vincenzo Lenzenio Ciampi (born April 2, 1719 Piacenza d'Adige ( Padua ) ?; † March 30, 1762 Venice ) was an Italian composer. His opera Bertoldo alla corte contributed (via detours) to the development of German game opera .

Career

There are still no thorough studies of Vincenzo Lenzeio Ciampi's life, as mentioned in 1952 in the great German encyclopedia Die Musik in Geschichte und Gegenwart . The situation at that time (1952) still exists today. He studied with the principal representatives of the Neapolitan School Francesco Durante and Leonardo Leo in Naples . The first opera by the 18-year-old composer Da un disordine nasce un ordine , Opera buffa in 3 acts (text: Gennaro Antonio Federico), had its world premiere in Naples in 1737. From 1748 to 1756 he lived (perhaps intermittently) in London. In 1760 he became Kapellmeister at the Venetian Ospedale degli Incurabili , one of the four famous girls' conservatories in Venice.

His Opera buffa Bertoldo alla corte (text: Carlo Goldoni , also with modified titles), first performed in Venice in 1748 at San Moisè, was then internationally successful at the major opera houses in Braunschweig, Potsdam, Amsterdam, London, Prague and Petersburg. In Paris , it was edited by Charles-Simon Favart in his Ninet à la cour in the then popular Parisian genre of opera parody. This process served Johann Adam Hiller as an inspiration for his Singspiel Lottchen am Hofe (Leipzig 1767). This in turn contributed to the development of German game opera .

A similar case of international cooperation is e.g. B. with Mozart's Singspiel Bastien und Bastienne (Vienna 1767/68).

Works

Vincenzo Lenzeio Ciampi composed more than twenty operas, four oratorios as well as church and instrumental music. The International Library of Music Sources (RISM OPAC-online) lists almost 300 works . Thereafter, several operas were printed during Ciampi's lifetime, both serious and buffo operas. In operons an overview of Ciampis opera titles is recorded. The various arrangements of Ciampi's very successful opera buffa Bertoldo alla corte were published promptly by French and English publishers. For example, John Walsh in London appeared in the popular series of “Favorite Arias” The favorite songs in the opera call'd Bertoldo . Several collections of instrumental concerts, violin and trio sonatas by Ciampi have appeared in contemporary London prints.
