Paisiello was born at Taranto (the former Greek colony) and educated by the Jesuits there. He became known for his beautiful singing voice and in 1754 was sent to the Conservatorio di S. Onofrio at Naples, where he studied under the famous composer Francesco Durante and eventually became assistant master. His reputation now firmly established and he settled for some years at Naples. There he produced a series of highly successful operas, one of which, L’ldolo cinese, made a deep impression upon the Neapolitan public. In 1776 Paisiello was invited by the empress Catherine II of Russia to St Petersburg, where he remained for eight years, producing, among other charming works, his masterpiece, Il barbiere di Siviglia, which soon attained a European reputation. The fate of this opera marks an epoch in the history of Italian art, for with it the gentle suavity cultivated by the masters of the 18th century died out to make room for the dazzling brilliance of a later period.
