Sammartini, Giovanni Battista
(*Milano?, 1700-01; †Milano, 15.I.1775)
- NG2001 (Bathia Churgin): Sammartini was the seventh of eight children of Alexis Saint-Martin, a French oboist who emigrated to Italy, and Girolama de Federici. He was probably born in Milan, the city in which he lived all his life. Since in his death certificate he is said to have been 74, he was presumably born in 1700 or the first two weeks of 1701
The death certificate, dated 17 January 1775, states that Sammartini had died two days earlier and was buried in the church of S Alessandro on the evening of 16 January. Musicians from S Fedele, Milan Cathedral and elsewhere joined in a memorial service on 18 January; the Office and Solemn Mass were sung before a great gathering of people because (as the death certificate states) he was ‘a most excellent master and celebrated by a most brilliant renown’. Of Sammartini's family, all that is known is that he was married twice, first to Margherita Benna (5 June 1727; d 13 Nov 1754) and then (on 23 June 1755) to Rosalinda Acquanio (aged 17), and that his daughter, Marianna Rosa (b 11 Sept 1733), was a singer
