Judith Pacquier (Kornett, Dir) // Mazzocchi's life and career are a prime example of the wealthy and sophisticated status of a highly educated musician in 17th century Rome. His status without financial worries allowed him to compose freely without artistic constraints. The quality of his art is shown by the fact that his brother, who was the chapel master at St. Peter's, regularly asked him for musical help. Mazzocchi perfectly reflects the richness of the Roman culture of his time.
