AZZOPARDI, Francesco. A learned Italian theorist of the latter half of the last century, from whose work, 'Il musico prattico,' published in the form of a French translation only (Paris, 1786), Cherubini quotes some interesting examples, in his 'Course of Counterpoint and Fugue.'

Azzopardi held the appointment of Maestro di Capella, in Malta.
