Program Notes

Although popular in his day, most of Capuzzi's music is now forgotten. The most commonly performed piece today is his concerto for double bass. The concerto was found in the British Museum by Philip Catelinet, and was dedicated to Kavalier Marcantonio Montenigo, who is assumed to have performed on that instrument. An arrangement of the second (andante) and third (rondo) movements of the concerto is also performed on tuba, euphonium, and trombone. In addition Philip Catelinet arranged all three movements of the concerto for concert band and symphony orchestra. He performed it several times during his tenure at the Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Penn.
