Luigi Cherubini - His Music and His Life
Born on September 14, 1760 in Florence, the great Italian composer Luigi Cherubini receceives his first teaching by his father. The Earl of Toscana, Italy, later the Emperor Leopold II, sent Cherubini to Venice, where he studied together with Guiseppe Sarti (1729, Faenza - 1802, Berlin).
Since 1780, Cherubini composed innumerable operas. He received incredible appreciations in most of all places in Italy. 1784 London followed. 1786 Pisa in Italy. The opera "Demophoon" (1789) became a great success after Napoleon's regency.
"La doiska" (1791), "Eliza" (1794), "Medee" (1797), and "Les Deux Journees" (The Two Journeys, 1800) came into being. Many more beautiful compositions followed. The "Oratorio f-major" has been composed 1808. The opera "Ali Baba" got its premiere only in 1963 (!) in Essen/Germany.
The native born Italian Cherubini lived most of the time in France - connected mostly with German classical music. He passed away in Paris on March 15, 1842.
