About Pasquale Bini

Lived 1716 – 1770 (aged 53). Pasquale Bini was a composer and violinist.

Pasquale Bini (21 June 1716 – April 1770) was an Italian violinist and composer of the Baroque era. He was a student of Giuseppe Tartini in Padua and later moved to Rome, where he performed under the patronage of Cardinal Fabio degli Abati Olivieri. In 1754, Bini became the concert director and chamber composer at the court of Charles Eugene, Duke of Württemberg. Much of his work has not survived.

Life Bini was born in Pesaro in 1716; his family were musicians. He was a favourite pupil of Giuseppe Tartini, to whom he was recommended at the age of fifteen by Cardinal . and studied with Tartini in Padua for three or four years. On moving to Rome, under the patronage of Cardinal Olivieri, he astonished the violinists by his performance, especially Antonio Montanari, the chief violin-player of the time at Rome, who was generally believed to have died of mortification at the superiority of Bini's talents.

Hearing that Tartini had changed his style of playing, he returned to Padua and placed himself for another year under his old master.

Emanuele Barbella, and perhaps Luigi Tomasini, were his pupils. Of his compositions, a violin sonata and a violin concerto survives; it is thought much has been lost.
