Life

Some sources give 1706 as his birth year, but when he entered the conservatory in Napels in 1735 he claimed to be in his 20th year.

Pasquale Cafaro lived in Napels and worked as Primo Maestro at the Santa Maria della Pieta dei Turchini. He composed especially church music, but also wrote some operas and other secular compositions.
