Giovanni Battista Moscaglia

about

Giovanni Battista Moscaglia (Rome, c. 1550 - d. April 18 , 1587) was an Italian Renaissance poet and composer. His father, Angelo, a surgeon, originally from Asigliano in Vicenza, who moved to Rome around the 1930s, and Fulvia de Rugerijs. The couple had at least three children: Delia, born around 1540; Joan Battista about a decade later (from March 21, 1559 to August 31, 1560, he appeared on the staff of the Cappella Giulia as a soprano, which means he had not changed his voice); Pompey's younger brother had died in 1579. The Moscaglia, who lived in the current alley of the Rooster, between Camp de 'Fiori and Piazza Farnese, followed with deep devotion to the spiritual experience of the Oratory of Philip Neri. This is evidenced by the disposition of August 2, 1595, during the process of canonization of the Florentine priest, by Delia and her husband Gaspare Brissio, who reported that on New Year's Eve 1562, the prayer of Neri, convened by Brissio at the head of the woman Delia in childbirth, had preserved the woman from certain death (the baby had died in the womb). Moscaglia was a musician and poet well inserted in the Roman context and much appreciated abroad, but in addition to the normal experience in the Capella Giulia directed by Giovanni Animuccia , it is not known that he has served elsewhere. You may not need it and the buildings you own in the Campo de 'Fiori area guarantee you a sufficient income. He himself confessed that he practiced the art of music for lei
