"The total number of Anfossi's operas, both heroic and comic, has not been established, but is certainly over 60 and possibly 70 or more . Anfossi's early style is close to Piccinni's, a reflection of their close professional relationship . His melodies . contain moments of elegance and warmth . Several stylistic changes are noticeable in his later works: textures are lighter, and there is more effective use, both in accompaniments and melody, of pauses and rests; there are fewer embellishments and ornamental notes in the melodic parts; the orchestration is more colourful, partly because of a more imaginative use of wind instruments. Gerber noted the originality of his finales . Anfossi was particularly successful at depicting sentimental characters and situations ." Michael F. Robinson, Mary Hunter and Marita P.
