Giacomo Panizza

Giacomo Panizza (27 March 1804 – 1 May 1860) was a conductor at La Scala, Milan for 13 years, during which time he composed two operas and thirteen ballets. He was born in Castellazzo Bormida and died in Milan. Ernesto Cavallini (1807-1874) played clarinet at La Scala and Panizza would often compose Clarinet solos in his ballets for him. Panizza's Ballabile con Variazioni was one such solo from the ballet, Ettore Fieramosca or The Challenge of Barletta. It should also be noted that Ballabile con Variazioni is one of the only works by Panizza that can still be heard today.
