5-ARMIDA 1771: FOR HIS 1st OPERA SERIA SALIERI FOLLOWS GLUCK'S RULES ON OPERA REFORM
Young #Salieri #Armida is certainly one of his best ever operas, very well rendered by #Rousset &
@talenslyriques: you may hear #Jommelli elements & #Gluck, but dark tones are new inventions!

5-JOMMELLI: STURM-DRANG & ROMANTICISM
It's difficult to explain how #Jommelli #RevolutionaryIdeas profoundly impressed #GermanWorld of #SturmDrang & #Romanticism:
#Schiller adored his #PharaonicOperas, #Hiller #Rheichardt #Dittersdorf #Goethe #HaydnBros #Mozart had Him as Model!
4-JOMMELLI: IN STUTTGART CREATED DREAM ORCHESTRA THAT MANNHEIM EMULATED
From arrival in #Stuttgart, #Jommelli created #NewLargeOrchestra: all musicians had to be all high level professionals (#theGenerals!), he studied perfect acoustics; #Concert #Opera must be heard in silence!
3-JOMMELLI: MANNHEIM OR STUTTGART? HE CHOSE STUTTGART
In 1753 received offer to conduct #Mannheim or #Stuttgart orchestra! #Jommelli chose #Stuttgart offering #BigBudget & #FreedomOfAction: there founded #School: many German composer studied with him as #Cannabich from #Mannheim!
2-JOMMELLI: MUSICAL JOURNEY CREATING ROOTS OF MODERN MUSIC
From end 1740s, we can say that #Jommelli was already moving away from #Baroque, shaping new Modern Orchestra&Style (see #Reichardt & #Hiller): #Mannheim & #Stuttgart #NewOrchestras are de facto his Great Gift to World!
According to #Reichardt accounts, #Jommelli letters & 1st #PrintedEditions, trying to render #Jommelli dynamics (we answer to #Spitzer #Zaslaw on subject): for #Jommelli f to ff without 'cresc/<' is already de facto a 'crescendo' & viceversa p to pp, etc.

1-JOMMELLI IN ROME 1740s/1750s: HE INVENTS THE MODERN ORCHESTRA
In #Rome #Jommelli introduced a new concept of orchestra: a full body with 14 to 21 violins, capable of playing with other instruments all together, creating nuances & crescendo, diminuendo!

4-JOMMELLI: FROM 1728 (?) HE SHOULD BE IN PIETA' TURCHINI
ca1728 for unknown reasons his father sent him from #SantOnofrio to #PietàTurchini!
From this moment on #Jommelli was mostly linked to #Mancini (great vocal composer) #Feo (great composition teacher) #Leo (Great Composer!)

His first school was #SantOnofrio with Great #Durante!
But his father unhappy, sent him to #PietàTurchini!
2-JOMMELLI: HE STARTED AS CHOIRBOY IN AVERSA CATHEDRAL

His father was a #ClothMerchant: Francesco Antonio Jommelli!

#Stuttgart Duke adored #Jommelli & have his operas performed in #Stuttgart, then personally contacted him to have him as #CourtComposer!
#Jommelli accepted!
4-JOMMELLI: AS POET BECAME EVEN A MEMBER OF ARCADIA ACADEMY IN ROME
#Jommelli was Great Composer that set a good number of fundamental innovations in
#OrchestraPerformance to #ModernStandards!
As Poet, he'd fix his own Librettos & became #AnfioneEteoclide an #ArcadiaMember 1753!
3-JOMMELLI: DIFFICULT ART vs PAISIELLO PRET-A-PORTER
#Jommelli Difficult/Demanding Art was subject of discussion already in 1750-60s!
#Jommelli wrote only for best musicians/singers, & his music must be studied (not a first-sight exercise)
vs #Paisiello wanted PretAPorter music!
