Review
Member of the Venetian nobility, he shared music with a career as a lawyer and magistrate of the Republic of Venice.
His pamphlet Il teatro alla fashion (1720) is a biting satire of the vices of the opera of his time. His great work is the fifty psalms of the poetic-harmonic ester. He should not be confused with his brother Alessandro, author of the famous oboe concert in a minor re.
