Naples has been considered among the most active centers in the production of operas in the eighteenth century. Scholars, accordingly, have emphasized the importance of the operatic tradition, leaving out other crucial aspects of the Neapolitan musical activity. In particular, the existence of a rich instrumental production has been discussed only rarely.

520 $a Naples has been considered among the most active centers in the production of operas in the eighteenth century. Scholars, accordingly, have emphasized the importance of the operatic tradition, leaving out other crucial aspects of the Neapolitan musical activity. In particular, the existence of a rich instrumental production has been discussed only rarely.
520 $a This is the first comprehensive study of the development of the string sonata in Naples between 1684 and 1736. Reinterpreting evidence previously known and drawing on new archival documents (dispatches, financial records, and lists of personnel of the principal musical establishments of the city), it reveals the existence of a vigorous string tradition, deeply connected to the most important music institutions of the time.
520 $a The careers and production of several musicians are examined in the cultural and political contexts of the time, shedding new light on the history of musical institutions in Naples and on aspects of musical patronage and the aesthetics of reception. Two traits emerge as distinctive of the local instrumental tradition: the adoption of a learned, contrapuntal style, and the virtuosic approach to performance practice. These traits characterize also the original repertory of sonatas for three violins and continuo that flourished in the first decades of the eighteenth century.
520 $a The development of Neapolitan instrumental music did not remain an isolated phenomenon. Its dissemination was sustained by the migration of those performers who, trained in the four Neapolitan conservatories, spent most of their lives in the service of sovereigns and aristocrats in other major European courts, such as Paris and Vienna. During their lifetime, they were internationally regarded among the finest exponents of their art. The "fiery genius" of these Neapolitan virtuosi and their music add an entirely new dimension to the history of Italian instrumental music.
