Nicoleta Paraschivescu - Giovanni Paisiello's Partimenti Book

Just as jazz musicians today use lead sheets (indicating only melody and harmony), so classic musicians once used partimenti - figured or unfired bass lines - in order to learn how to improvise and compose at the harpsichord. Giovanni Paisiello (1740-1816) was one of the most famous composers of his time. His «Regole per bene accompagnare il Partimento» were published 1782 in St. Petersburg.
