A talented Italian violinist Zuccari founded a school in Milan where he had settled in 1736. He participated with <a href="spotify:artist:3q4lkJBQDPwgWC1rkfxXLv">Sammartini</a> in the academy held at Collegio dei Nobili, 1741. In 1760 Zuccari was in London playing with the Italian opera orchestra. This is the time when his "True Method of Playing an Adagio Made Easy by 12 Examples" was published. By 1765 Zuccari was back in Italy and again worked with <a href="spotify:artist:3q4lkJBQDPwgWC1rkfxXLv">Sammartini</a> only this time he led the orchestra at an academy in Cremona. In his compositions, particularly the sonatas for violin, Zuccari preferred the three movement slow-fast-fast setting, elaborate melodic lines and bass parts that maintained a supporting role rather than involvement with the musical themes. Zuccari's compositions were also colored by a keen sense of contrapuntal knowledge and technique. ~ Keith Johnson, Rovi
