Muzio Filippo Vincenzo Francesco Saverio Clementi (23 January 1752 – 10 March 1832) was an Italian-born English
composer,pianist,pedagogue,conductor, music publisher, editor, and piano manufacturer.
Encouraged to study music by his father, he was sponsored as a young composer by Sir Peter Beckford who took him to England to
advancehisstudies.Later, he toured Europe numerous times from his long-standing base in London. It was on one of these occasions, in 1781, that he
engaged inapianocompetition with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Influenced by Domenico Scarlatti's harpsichord school and Haydn's classical school and by the stile galante of Johann Christian Bach
andIgnazioCirri,Clementi developed a fluent and technical legato style, which he passed on to a generation of pianists, including John Field, Johann
BaptistCramer,IgnazMoscheles, Giacomo Meyerbeer, Friedrich Kalkbrenner, Johann Nepomuk Hummel and Carl Czerny. He was a notable influence on
LudwigvanBeethoven.
Clementi also produced and promoted his own brand of pianos and was a notable music publisher. Because of this activity,
manycompositionsbyClementi's contemporaries and earlier artists have stayed in the repertoire. Though the European reputation of Muzio Clementi
wassecond only toJosephHaydn in his day, his reputation languished for much of the 19th and 20th centuries.[1] « hide |
