Ivan Mane Jarnović

Ivan Mane Jarnović was a violinist and composer during the 18th century, often said to have been Italian but whose family was of Ragusan origin. There is no evidence that he ever lived in the Croatian lands to which both his paternal and maternal lineages have been traced. He later appears to have held French citizenship, escaping to England during the revolution. His career spanned Europe as he performed and/or sojourned in almost all major centres including Paris, Berlin, Warsaw, St Petersburg, Vienna, Stockholm, Basel, London, Dublin, amongst others. It appears he was a pupil of Antonio Lolli and he was an acquaintance of Joseph Haydn, with whom he shared concert programmes in London. ^{Ivan Mane Jarnović, Italian violinist and composer (d. 1804)}
