This listing was put together following an enquiry by a descendant and does not pretend to completeness, concentrating on the London imprints which are listed with some others in chronological order. Its compilation has however enabled me to put some flesh on the brief entry in The London book trades 1775-1800 which will soon be updated online:

In 1784, he obtained the post of librettist to the Italian theatre in Vienna and wrote libretti for Mozart's operas The Marriage of Figaro, Don Giovanni and Cosi fan tutti as well as working with Salieri and Soler. He lost his patron on the death of Emperor Joseph II in 1790 and in 1792 left for Paris, deciding to head on to London where he was active as a printer, book and music seller from 1797 to 1805.
