Diskussion:Giovanni Battista degli Antonii

This information from Grove music.

Degli Antoni [Antonii], Giovanni Battista (b Bologna, 24 June 1660; d Bologna, after 1696). Italian composer and organist, brother of PIETRO DEGLI ANTONI . He spent his life in Bologna, where he studied with Giacomo Predieri and in 1684 became a member of the Accademia Filarmonica. Later he was appointed organist of S Giacomo Maggiore, a post he held until his death. Highly esteemed as an organist, he published only organ and instrumental chamber music. His Ricercate op.1 is an important early instance of music for solo cello; in subsequent publications he contributed to the Bolognese repertory of solo and trio sonatas. The organ verset collections opp.2 and 7 are the largest publications of their kind from the second half of the Seicento. Because these cycles are labeled and ordered according to the tuoni ecclesiastici (and in the case of op.2 their most common transpositions as well), they shed light on Italian modal and liturgical conventions in the mid Baroque.
