Composer
Carlo Ricciotti (1675-1756)
Unico Willem van Wassenaer, Count of the Empire, (2 November 1692, Delden, Overijssel ? 9 November 1766, The Hague) was a Dutch diplomat and composer.
His most important surviving compositions are the Concerti Armonici, which until recently had been misattributed to the Italian composer Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (1710-1736).
Between 1725 and 1740, he wrote the Concerti Armonici, but being a nobleman, he did not want to publish them in his own name (or because he doubted his ability as a composer). The concertos were published in 1740, by the Italian violin player Carlo Ricciotti (1681?1756), to whom the concertos were attributed at first. Van Wassenaer has therefore been called "the mystery composer."
