Alessandro Marcello

Italian composer Alessandro Marcello was born in Venice on 1 February 1673.  He had a comfortable life as a nobleman and as the son of a senator which meant that he could concentrate on writing music, and he became very proficient, sometimes writing using the pseudonym Eterio Stinfalico.

His best known work is the D minor Oboe Concerto, Op 1.

His brother was the better-known composer Benedetto Marcello.

Alessandro Marcello died in Padua on 19 June 1747, aged seventy-four.
