Pescetti studied music with <a href="spotify:artist:1wRBvRI8HbcqszDCvItFmC">Lotti</a> who was the organist at St. Mark's in Venice. <a href="spotify:artist:1wRBvRI8HbcqszDCvItFmC">Lotti</a> was also an opera composer and <a href="spotify:artist:65fAk5vQnO9gmOCk2wPkuT">Galuppi</a>, whom Pescetti collaborated with, was also one of <a href="spotify:artist:1wRBvRI8HbcqszDCvItFmC">Lotti's</a> students. Composing a mass which impressed Hasse of the Viennese court, Pescetti was asked to supply operas which were performed in a number of the theatres in Vienna, 1725-1732. In 1736 Pescetti was in London, playing the harpsichord and becoming the director of the Opera of the Nobility. Many of his operas were performed there as were his keyboard sonatas based on arrangements of arias and the overture to his opera "La conquista del velo d'oro." He returned to Vienna in 1747 acceding to the position of second organist at St. Mark's in 1762. The arias in his operas were singable, articulate and succinct with facile accompaniments and limited harmony. ~ Keith Johnson, Rovi
