Pellegrino Tomeoni (c.1721, [1] in Lucca – c.1816, in Lucca) was an Italian composer and organist.
Pellegrino studied in Naples [2] and returned to his native Lucca in 1748 where he was involved with the Teatro Tasche. He was subsequently maestro di cappella at the collegiate church in Camaiore (1750 1778), at St. Michele in Foro in Lucca (1779 1785) and at the collegiate church in Pietrasanta (1785 1816). His son Florindo (1755–1820) was also a composer. His daughter Irene Tomeoni (Dutillieu) (1763–1830) was an Italian soprano. She performed in Vienna in the 1790s and beyond. On December 18, 1795, she performed in a concert produced by Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) which also featured newcomer Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827). According to Theodore Albrecht, a Beethoven historian, Hayden sold tickets from his third floor apartment.
