The next link in our chain is Scarlatti. Alessandro Scarlatti was born in Trapani, Sicily,in 1659. We find him at a comparatively early agesettled in Naples, where he was celebrated as a singer,and a performer on the harp and the harpsichord andas a composer of operas. He was the chief of theNeapolitan School. Modern critics have proved thaton his ideas the great Gluck built his musical edifice. Scarlatti was a prolific composer. He wrote onehundred and fifteen operas and two hundred masses,besides oratorios, cantatas and other works. He is of importance to the Orchestra because of thenew way he wrote for the instruments. He made theaccompaniment of vocal recitative of new importanceand gave the Orchestra a great part to do throughoutthe entire opera. The strings formed the groundworkof his Orchestra; and he also used oboes, flutes, bas-soons, trumpets, drums and horns (the latter an inno-vation). 1 Paul David.</i><br><b>Image caption:</b>

Dr. Burneyput the debt that great composers owe to Scarlatticoncisely when he said: I find part of Scarlattisproperty among the stolen goods of all the best com-posers of the first forty years of the present century. With regard to his treatment of the violoncello,Dr. Burney says: The violoncello parts of many of his cantatas wereso excellent that whoever was able to do them justicewas thought a supernatural being.
