: Composers of the Week: Forgotten Giants of 18th-Century Opera
"Were I to name the living composers of Italy for the stage according to my idea of their merit, they would be in the following order: Hasse, Jommelli, Galuppi, Piccinni, Sacchini etc." (Charles Burney ,1770). Burney's favourites were all internationally famous men in their time, yet performances of their operas are rare today. In the first programme devoted to the big-name opera composers of the 1700s, Paul Guinery introduces music by this top five, including excerpts from
Galuppi's // Filosofo di Campagna,
Jommelli's Didone Abbandonata and Sacchinl's La Contradina in Corte.

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
