Bartolomeo Campagnoli
(Cento, 10 September 1751 - Neustrelitz, 7 November 1827)

Italian violinist and composer. According to the biography that Campagnoli prepared for Gerber, his first teacher was the Bolognese violinist Dall’Ocha, a pupil of Lolli. His father, who was a merchant, sent him to Modena in 1763 for further study with Guastarobba, a noted pupil of Tartini. Returning home in 1766, he took a position in the local orchestra (whether Cento or Bologna is not clear). When the touring violinist Lamotta came through Cento in 1768, Campagnoli became so fascinated with his playing that he followed him to Venice and Padua. In 1770 Campagnoli played successfully in Rome and spent a short time in Faenza. He then settled in Florence, where for the next five years he studied under Nardini and served as leader of the second violins at the Teatro della Pergola. He returned to Rome in 1775 to fill the same post at the Teatro Argentina, but after a year he left Italy and entered the service of the Bishop of Freysingen. Most of 1778 he was apparently on an extended tour through Poland, north Germany and Scandinavia. In Stockholm he was elected a member of the Swedish Royal Academy of Music. He became director of music at the court of the Duke of Courland in Dresden in 1779 but continued frequent concert tours. He performed in numerous Italian cities in 1784; he spent two months in Prague and visited Berlin in 1786, and in 1788 he was in Italy again. In 1797, after the death of the Duke of Courland, Campagnoli became leader of the Gewandhaus Orchestra in Leipzig, and his concert tours virtually ceased. He went to Paris in 1801, however, where the playing of Kreutzer impressed him deeply. Although he had doubtless been an active composer in Dresden, few publications had appeared before he settled in Leipzig, and it was there that he began to produce the pedagogical works on which his fame largely rests today. In 1816 he took his two daughters, both of whom were singers, to Italy for a year; he then took them to Frankfurt, where both girls received appointments in the opera. In 1818 he resigned from the Gewandhaus Orchestra, probably to help his daughters’ careers. He moved with them to Hanover in 1820 and in 1826 followed them to Neustrelitz, where he may have held a position himself for the last year of his life.
