Here we find the sequence of pieces much the same as in 1791, though somewhat fewer — ten as opposed to twelve. One can be sure that some subscribers went chiefly to hear the Rossini and Mozart numbers, perhaps as well the one by the 74-year-old Zingarelli, a composer little known to us today but highly respected at that time. |
