Neapolitan Music Society

www.neapolitanmusicsociety.org


Mission Statement

The Neapolitan Music Society comprises a dedicated group of musicians, composers, academics, and international community leaders deeply committed to promoting the Neapolitan School of Music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and its right place in the history of music, and to give voice once again to the finest but forgotten masterpieces of music through performance, research, education, and preservation.Literally hundreds of symphonies, operas, and other works by the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Neapolitan Masters exist only on paper, preserved but mute without performance, and sit silently in private institutions and music libraries in Italy and throughout Europe.Supported by four ancient conservatories (1503-1826) The Neapolitan School of Music produced the greatest Italian masters, such as Alessandro and Domenico Scarlatti, Niccolò Jommelli, Gian Francesco de Majo, Leonardo Leo, Franceso Durante, Nicola Fiorenza, and many more. Few musicians and music lovers today are familiar with this historic chapter deeply rooted in Naples.
