Carlo Alfredo Piatti
Carlo Alfredo Piatti (8 January 182218 July 1901) was an Italian cellist, teacher and composer. Biography Piatti was born at via Borgo Canale, in Bergamo and died in Mozzo, 4 miles from Bergamo. The son of a violinist, Antonio Piatti, he originally began his studies on the violin before switching to the cello. As a cellist, he studied under his great-uncle, Gaetano Zanetti, a great cellist. After two years of studying, he joined the theater orchestra, where he played for three months - for ten shillings, half of which his grandfather took. After Zanetti's death, he became a pupil at the ''conservatorio'' of Milan under Vincenzo Merighi. He made his concert debut at 15 and started touring at 16. No one doubted the young virtuoso's skill on the instrument, but he did not draw large crowds.

Piatti Scooter
Despite its Italian name, the Piatti scooter was of Belgian (and later, British) manufacture, being originally produced in 1954 in Belgium by D'Ieteren. Its name came from its designer, Vincent Piatti. In 1956, production also commenced at the Cyclemaster works at Byfleet in Surrey, England.''The Motor Cycle (magazine), The Motor Cycle'', two-page road test, 7 March 1957, pp.298-299. Accessed 15 June 2019 However, the increasing availability of affordable small cars in Europe affected sales of the Piatti (and other scooters) and production eventually ceased. According to Erwin Tragatsch in a brief entry on the Piatti scooter in his ''Illustrated Encyclopedia of Motorcycles'', Cyclemaster "failed to find many customers for this product", and manufactured only a small number before British production terminated. The Piatti scooter has the dubious distinction of being, in the words of Bob Currie (author of ''Great British Motorcycles of the Sixties''), "the worst scooter ever perp ...
