To be distinguished from an earlier Sienese composer Alessandro Della Ciaia (c. 1605 - c. 1670)

Azzolino Bernardino della Ciaja (21 May 1671Шаблон:Spaced ndash15 January 1755) was an Italian organist, harpsichordist, composer and organ builder.

Life

Born in Siena, into a rich family, he was a member of the Pisan Cavalieri di S Stefano order. He lived in Pisa from 1703 and 1713, but kept strong connections with Florence. In 1713 he moved to Rome where he stayed till 1730. He moved then back to Pisa where he died.

Expert in organ building, he worked on the organ of Santo Stefano dei Cavalieri, a large 5- manual and more than 60 stop organ.

Very important are the Six Sonatas for Harpsichord published in Rome in 1727.
