LOGROSCINO (or Lo GRoscINo), NICOLA (1700?1763 ?)

This article appears in Volume V16, Page 922 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LOB-LUP
LOGROSCINO (or Lo GRoscINo), NICOLA (1700?1763 ?) , Italian musical composer, was born at Naples and was a
pupil
  of
Durante
 . In 1738 he collaborated with Leo and others in the hasty production of Demelrio; in the autumn of the same year he produced a comic opera L'inganno per inganno, the first of a
long
 
series
  of comic operas, the success of which won him the name of " it Dio dell' opera buffa." He went to
Palermo
 , probably in 1747, as a teacher of
counterpoint
 ; as an opera composer he is last heard of in 176o, and is supposed to have died about 1763. Logroscino has been credited with the invention of the concerted operatic finale, but as far as can be seen from the
score
  of Il Governatore and the few remaining fragments of other operas, his finales show no advance upon those of Leo. As a musical humorist, however, he deserves remembrance, and may justly be classed alongside of
Rossini
 .
