These days, Giovanni Paisiello’s name will only be known to the most ardent of Opera buffa/Commedia dell’Arte aficionados. However, during his lifetime he was celebrated as one of the greatest living composers, enjoying considerable royal patronage, fame and renown. Eclipsed by the likes of Rossini and Mozart his work is rarely performed today, but the music for his opera The Imaginary Astrologer has been used by James P Farwell in creating THE FABULIST.
