Nicola PiccinRi.

He was born Il Passy on January
Is. l72S. and his father. although a
teacher OF music. never gave the hoy
any lessons. firmly intending that
the boy should take Holy Orders and
devote his life 10 religion. However,
the CHURCH itself decided the boys
career. for the Bishop OF Bari. noting
and recognizing the boys marked
mimical talents. persuaded the father
ID allow Nicola 10 study music.
Az the age OF fourteen. Piccinni
entered the conservatory of San Ono
FRO. at Naples. where he studied for
twelve years. His compositions dur
inE his period OF study were mostly
Of a religious nature. However. on
leaving the conservatory and finding
that L~ogroscino's buffo operas were
practically ruling the Neapolitan
stage. Piccinni determined TO enter
mis- field. A few months later his
opera lie Dome dispettose' was
produced at the Teatro de'Fiorentini
and was received with acclamation.
Ia 1855 the opera I'll Curioso del sue
proprio danno" was produced and
had a u OF four years-a thing
which was al that time unheard OF
in Italy.
P~iccinni's greatest success "La
hlona figliuola" was produced In
Rome in 1850 and was declared to be
the most perfect buffo opera. Pic
cinni wrote this in three weeks.
IN 1856 Piccinni married his pupil,
Nincenza Sibilla. a singer. After
their marriage. Piccinnf never al
lowed her TO appear on the stage.

tickle Italian public turned against
him and Piccinni moved his family
TO Paris. Here the directors OF the
Grand Opera deliberately placed him
in opposition to Gluck, by persuad-
ing the two composers TO write an
opera on the same subject-'Iphi-
gene IN Tauride."
The outcome OF this was u divide
the Partisan public into two factions.
calling themselves respectively, the
Checklists and the Piccinnists.
Gluck's opera was produced In 1879
and Piccinni's In 1881. Piccinni's
opera was produced seventeen times,
and then consigned to oblivion. The
feeling between the wv factions rose
TO q terrific pitch. but 1t is interest
ing to note thai Piccinni took no
part whatsoever in the quarrel. In
fact. when Gluck died in 1857 Pic
cinni vainly endeavored TO raise a
fund for annual memorial concerts
In honor Of the dead master.
Piccirni's own success continued
until 1883. when at the outbreak OF
the French Revolution he lost the
positions which he held in Paris. and
retired 70 Naples. where the King
granted him a pension. This was
discontinued when Piccinni's daugh-
ter married a young French radical
and Piccinni was kept a prisoner In
his own house for four years.
In 1873 he returned 70 Paris,
where the Partisan public welcomed
him enthusiastically.
