There was a Franz Anton Roessler born near Prague in 1747 which could be the same composer as the Italian form of the name used after 1773 (‘Antonio Rosetti’) but the Italian form was and still is so common in Italy that we sometimes wonder if we are in fact talking about the same composer-whose nearly 400 musical compositions at times rival Haydn in quality… There have been stories that an ‘Franz Antonin Roessler’ fell afoul of his employers c. 1772 & fled Prague to other cities in Europe including Paris under a pseudonym ‘Antonio Rosetti’ -tho’ these stories are difficult to nail down with hard documentation…all we can say for sure is that a very talented composer (d. 1792 ?) was widely publish’d - and deservedly so for his sheer melodic genius & his obviously close-studying the works of Joseph Haydn’s sinfonias transform’d him into a ‘wurdig’ representative of the late 18th century stiles both in secular (his main focus being concerti & sinfonias) but also sacred music including a number of contrapuntal Passion Oratorios and even Requiem Mass from 1776 which bears his name on the title page… Long story short, all 400 or so of the compositions attributed to him deserve to be re-publish’d & perform’d using period instruments …
