Domenico Sigismondi
(Roma? c.1770 - Sassari, 1820)

Italian composer. He began his musical activity in Tuscany and Liguria. One of his first operas, 'Il semplice riflessivo e gli astuti furiosi', was performed in 1798 at the Teatro della Pallacorda in Florence. In 1807 he settled in Cagliari where he was active as a 'maestro al cembalo' at the Regio Teatro and from the following year at the Cappella Civica and again at the Regio Teatro, but now as a composer. In June 1810 he moved to Sassari, where he held the post of 'maestro di cappella' of the Sassari's Cathedral, post he preserved until his death in 1820. During his stay in Sassari he wrote two operas, a festive cantata and some liturgical works, among them the foremost 'Messa a tre voci con accompagnamento di piena orchestra' (1805). #ClassicalMusic
