Panerai, Vincenzo (c. 1750-c. 1790)

Principi di Musica.

Presso Giovanni Chiari: Firenze, [c 1770, as per WorldCat]. Engraved. Small quarto. 10 pp. Sewn. A very nice copy. Occasional stains, quite minor. Otherwise clean and crisp.
Although a general music method, this volume includes scales for keyboard in the French and Italian manners, as well as scales for violin, viola, cello, bass, flute, and oboe. It also contains one of the few fingering tables for flute that survives from mid- to late-eighteenth century Italy.

Very little is known about Italian composer Vincenzo Panerai. He studied composition alongside Luigi Cherubini in Florence, and Cherubini is known to have praised the performance of Panerai's music in that city in the 1770s. Panerai wrote several didactic works, and a contemporary newspaper, the Gazzetta Toscana, once praised his abilities as a teacher.
