Notes

In 1984, Frank Zappa released an album titled Francesco Zappa, unwittingly becoming the first contemporary interpreter of the work of this unknown Milanese composer, effectively marking the beginning of his rediscovery. An incredible fate, that of Francesco Zappa, who, after long living amid the success and honors of the Dutch and German courts, later died in poverty, even experiencing a sort of damnatio memoriae due to the contempt heaped on him by Leopold Mozart.
