Introduction

The Centro Studi Opera omnia Luigi Boccherini-Onlus of Lucca was established in November 2005 to carry out the editorial work relating to the complete works of the lucchese composer Luigi Boccherini. The President of the Centro Studi Opera omnia Luigi Boccherini-Onlus is Dr. Fulvia Morabito, the Vice President is Dr. Massimiliano Sala, General Secretary and the Treasurer is Dr. Roberto Illiano; the founding associate is Professor Christian Speck. The choice of Lucca as a location is not by chance: Luigi Boccherini was born in Lucca, so it is the natural site on which to launch the Italian National Edition of Luigi Boccherini’s Complete Works. The Centro Studi is destined to become the fulcrum of international scholarship on Boccherini. The Centro Studi also hosts the work of the Italian National Edition of the Opera omnia of Pietro Antonio Locatelli and the musicological series Speculum Musicae, Studi sulla Storia della Musica in Lombardia and Monumenta Musica Europea. Furthermore, the staff of the Centro Studi carry out the scientific and editorial work of numerous international musicological publications, including Boccherini Studies, offering the definitive record of international scholarly debate on the composer, and, together with other musicologists, the Journal Ad Parnassum. A Journal of 18th- and 19th-Century Instrumental Music, and the series Ad Parnassum Studies. The Centro Studi Opera omnia Luigi Boccherini-Onlus is a member (Ente partecipante) of the Fondazione Promo P.A. di Lucca (www.promopa.it)
