He wrote one piece of music the Vatican guarded so jealously that copying it was forbidden—until a 14-year-old Mozart heard it once and transcribed it from memory.
About
Gregorio Allegri was born in Rome around January 1582, the brother of composer Domenico Allegri. He took holy orders in the Catholic Church and sang as well as composed, working within the Roman School tradition. His Miserere for two choirs became the work that defined him, a setting so prized by the papal chapel that it remained closely held for generations. He spent his life in Rome, where he died in February 1652.
