Wahrscheinlich einer slavisch-venezianischen Familie entstammend, finden wir ihn zuerst in Venedig und später in Padua. Eine Laute von ihm, aus Venedig datirt (später [1695] von Matth. Hummel »zugericht«), besitzt das Germanische Museum in Nürnberg; eine andere (aus Padua) befindet sich im grossh. Museum in Darmstadt (No. 482); eine kleine spanische Guitarre besitzt die Sammlung der Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Wien (No. 35).

Son of Andrea and brother of Matteo. He worked in Venice till 1655, in Padua from 1655 till 1670. The arching of his instrument is somewhat high, the good brown-red varnish has darkened and appears today black-brown.
