He was a celebrated violinist and creative composer during his lifetime, whose works spread throughout Europe. On the occasion of the anniversary, Stefano Marcocchi and Simone Laghi recorded six viola duets by the Neapolitan, honoring the charming, gallant style of the almost forgotten composer. A native of Parma, Italian violist Stefano Marcocchi studied at the Conservatorio A. Boito, graduating cum laude. There he developed an interest in early music and playing on historic instruments. He has been principal violist of Europa Galante since 2001, playing extensively in Europe, America, Asia, and Australia, and taking part in twenty recording projects. Simone Laghi graduated in modern viola and violin from the Conservatorio “B. Maderna,” in Cesena, Italy. He mainly studies baroque viola music, and regularly performs alongside Stefano Marcocchi.
