Sensational and dramatic, melodic and emotional, Italian music took London by storm in 1711 with Handel’s wildly successful opera, Rinaldo. The excitement and novelty of Corelli and Vivaldi’s instrumental stylings were also catching on across the British Isles, attracting a cohort of Italian musicians to settle in Britain and, the the case of Francesco Barsanti, absorb Scots culture into his own music.
