Domenico Gizzi

Domenico Gizzi (Arpino, 1680 - Naples, 1745) was an Italian composer and singing teacher.[1] Also known as "Egizio" or "Egiziello", he founded a famous singing school in 1720 and among his pupils counted Francesco Feo and Gioacchino Conti, who was named "Gizziello" in his teacher's honour.
