Venanzio Rauzzini
Venanzio Rauzzini (19 December 1746 – 8 April 1810)〔Kathleen Kuzmick Hansell, Oxford Music Online〕 was an Italian castrato, composer, pianist, singing teacher and concert impresario. As a boy he was a member of the Sistine Chapel Choir and was a pupil of Domenico Corri and Muzio Clementi. He also studied with Giuseppe Santarelli in Rome and Nicola Porpora in Naples.〔(Rauzzini Biography of Venanzio Rauzzini at operissimo.com (in German) )〕
==Life==
Rauzzini was born at Camerino. He made his professional opera debut in 1765 at the Teatro Valle in Rome portraying one of the female characters in Niccolò Piccinni's opera ''Il finto astrologo''.〔Barbier, p. 88〕 He sang at the Teatro San Samuele in Venice in 1766, after which he performed at the Münich Hofoper in 1766-1767.〔 Rauzzini had to leave the Munich court because of his many affairs with married women.〔Barbier, pp. 138-139〕 He next sang at the court at Vienna in 1767 where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart "reacted with delight when he heard Rauzzini singing and offered him the role of ''primo uomo'' in his ''Lucio Silla'' (1772), in Milan, before composing the motet ''Exsultate Jubilate'' (1773) especially for him."〔Barbier, p. 179〕
Rauzzini returned for performances in Venice and Munich during the early 1770s and also had a very successful run in London, England〔Barbier, p. 185〕 from 1774 until his retirement from the stage in 1778.〔Barbier, p. 210〕 After his opera career ended he worked as a singing and piano teacher and also composed a number of operas.〔 After a living in London for some years he settled in Bath in 1780 and became Director of the New Assembly Room Concerts in 1781. Joseph Haydn stayed with him in 1794 and composed the canon 'Turk was a Faithful Dog' as a gift for his host, taking the words from the garden memorial to Rauzzini's favourite dog. Some of Rauzzini's more notable pupils included Stephen Storace, Nancy Storace, Michael Kelly, John Braham〔Emerson (2005, 101)〕 Rosemond Mountain,〔(The Silencing of Bel Canto ), Brianna E Robertson-Kirkland, University of Glasgow, page 4, retrieved 4 February 2015〕 and Maria Dickons.〔W. B. Squire, ‘Dickons , Martha Frances Caroline (c.1774–1833)’, rev. John Rosselli, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 (accessed 21 Dec 2014 )〕 Rauzzini directed and financed concert life in Bath from c. 1781 until his death in 1810: many of his pupils appeared in the subscription concerts that he organised each year. Before dying he published vocal exercises and a treatise on his ideas on singing.〔Hansell, ibid.〕 Venanzio Rauzzini is buried in Bath Abbey where there is a memorial erected to him by his pupils Anna Selina Storace and John Braham.〔
His brother, Matteo (1754-1791), was also a composer and a teacher of singing.〔Baldwin and Wilson.〕
