Английская Википедия:Giovanni Battista Gervasio
Giovanni Battista Gervasio (c. 1725 - c. 1785) was an Italian musician and composer. Born in Naples he was one of the first generation of virtuoso-mandolinists who left Italy and played the mandolin in Europe in the 18th century.[1][2] He was a composer for the mandolin and his works can be found scattered in 18th century collections such as the Gimo music collection and the Bibliothèque Nationale de France.[3][4] He also wrote a mandolin method Methode facile pour apprendre a quatre cordes, instrument pour les dames (Easy method for learning four-string instruments for ladies), published in Paris in 1767.[5] He performed in London 1768 and in Frankfurt-on-the-Main on December 10, 1777, and the Concert Spirituel in Paris on December 24, 1784 .[1][5] He advertised in 1785 that he was master of singing and mandolin to Her Royal Highess, the Princess of Prussia.[5] A work of music addressed to her exists today in the Bibliothèque Nationale de France.[3]
Gervasio advertised his teaching services in Grenoble in 1785.[5] As the last known advertisement for him, it has been proposed that he settled and later died there.[5]
