Cristoforo Besozzi (born 1661 in Milan – died 22 October 1725 in Piacenza) was an Italian oboist, bassoonist and founder of a large family of wind players very influential around Parma, Naples and Turin for more than 200 years. In 1700, he settled in Parma,[1] taking part as oboist in the ducal hautboy band Guardia Irlandese with his son Giuseppe Besozzi in 1711.[2] His other two sons, Alessandro and Paolo Girolamo Besozzi, joined him from 1714.[3]
