Full biography Evaristo Felice Dall'Abaco
Evaristo Felice Dall'Abaco was an Italian composer and musician born on February 12th, 1675, in Verona, Italy. He was a member of the noble Dall'Abaco family who were renowned for their musical talent. Evaristo showed early promise as a musician and began his training as a violinist and cellist with his father, Damiano Dall'Abaco.
From a young age, Evaristo was exposed to the music of his time and the great composers of the Baroque era, such as Johann Sebastian Bach and Antonio Vivaldi, who were his contemporaries. He soon became known for his virtuosic performances on the cello and was appointed as the cellist in the orchestra of the Duke of Mantua in 1704.
Dall'Abaco's career as a composer began around 1700, and he produced a significant body of work, including sonatas, concertos, and sinfonias. His music was characterized by his exceptional ability to write for the cello, a relatively new instrument at the time, which he played masterfully. His compositions were also noted for their elegance and grace and were well-received by audiences and musicians alike.
Dall'Abaco's most famous works include his Opus 2 collection of twelve sonatas for two violins and basso continuo, his Opus 5 collection of concertos for strings and continuo, and his collection of sinfonias for orchestra. His music is considered to be a bridge between the late Baroque and early Classical periods.
Despite his prolific output and respected reputation, Dall'Abaco died in relative obscurity in Munich in 1742. However, his music continues to be performed and recorded today and remains a testament to his exceptional skill as a composer and musician.
