Ignazio Fiorillo (11 May 1715 – 1787) was a Neapolitan-born composer whose career bridged Italian opera culture and the musical institutions of eighteenth-century Germany. Trained in Naples under Francesco Durante and Leonardo Leo, he emerged from the conservatory world into a life shaped by theatre and court service. Treccani’s biographical summary places him as maestro di cappella in Brunswick from 1754 to 1762 and in Kassel from 1762 to 1780, after which he retired, dying at Fritzlar in 1787.
