A few years later, probably when he was 11 or 12, he was given counterpoint lessons by {{ill|Gaetano Carpani|ca}}. By the age of 13 Clementi had already composed an [[oratorio]], ''Martirio de' gloriosi Santi Giuliano e Celso'',<ref name="DizionarioBiograficoDegliItaliani"/> and a [[Mass (music)|mass]]. When he was 14, in January 1766, he became organist of the parish church of [[San Lorenzo in Damaso|San Lorenzo in Dámaso]].<ref name="MuzioClementi.com"/>
