Review
He worked between Rome and Naples, where he was a chapel teacher of the viceroy. He wrote over a hundred operas and six hundred cantatas.
He consolidated the Neapolitan opera school, the aria da capo and the Italian oberture in three parts (fast-slow-fast), before the symphony. He was the father of Domenico Scarlatti.
