Italian-born composer Luigi Boccherini (1743-1805), like Domenico Scarlatti before him, gravitated to the Iberian Peninsula at the invitation of the Spanish Court. Already famous in his teens as a virtuoso cellist, he enjoyed the patronage and admiration of the Spanish aristocracy. Boccherini is perhaps best known to guitarists through a number of string quintets, arranged by the composer in 1799 for guitar and string quartet at the request of the Marquis de Benavente, himself a guitarist. In 1787 he was appointed "Composer of his chamber" by Friedrich Wilhelm II of Prussia. He returned to Spain in 1797 but then lacked a patron and he died in poverty.
Compositeur italien, Luigi Boccherini (1743-1805) comme Domenico Scarlatti avant lui, passa une grande partie de sa vie en Espagne sur invitation de la Cour à Madrid. Déjà célèbre à l’adolescence en tant que violoncelliste virtuose, il put profiter des faveurs et de l’admiration de l’aristocratie espagnole. Boccherini est sans doute plus connu par les guitaristes à cause de certains quintettes à cordes qui furent arrangés par le compositeur en 1799 pour quatuor à cordes et guitare à la demande du Marquis de Benavente, guitariste lui-même. En 1787, il fut nommé "compositeur à la cour" par Friedrich Wilhelm II de Prusse. Il retourna en Espagne en 1797 où cette fois il n’eut pas de "protecteur" et mourut dans la pauvreté.
