Yeah, his librettist in his years in France.
I'm much more careful these days when searching for pictures.

This is quite lovely! I recently bought the Adam Fischer Haydn Symphonies and, listening to them I noticed a lot of little musical phrases, "words" and gestures that I recognised from Mozart and Beethoven. Where did this language come from? Certainly not Haydn's teachers, neither Porpora, nor Reutter, not touted Jomelli nor any of those other types, whose music was firmly rooted in the Baroque. No: his language was Italian: Gluck, Galluppi, Holzbauer, with maybe a whiff of old Hasse. Thanks!

it's incredible, i thinked never listen Piccinni opera, it's a very good ouverture baroque and neoclassique

New opera by the kind sig. Piccinni :)
By the way, picture in the middle is not actually Piccinni.
I blame the Google image search.

All your vids are so rich, admirable, fascinating! They let me forget the other things, even my tasks! ;)
I'm interested in & fond of Piccinni in your channel :)
The overtures are exciting, I adore especially this composition!
And...here, who plays (Baroque) oboe, please? Remarkably good interpretation!

No idea who's playing that.
Btw, it's ordinary theatre orchestra so no baroque instruments I think.
They play very well nevertheless.

Thank you for replying.
> it's ordinary theatre orchestra so no baroque instruments
Usually, yes! :) And not often, but depending on projects, ordinary orchestras can play with a baroque violin (or two!), or with a violadagamba...etc. A bit like at the New Year's Concert Wienna Philharmonic uses some folkloric instruments. So.
I thought you have also the name of all players! Playlist was not the list of players... :'(
