Who influenced the left hand composing technique of many classical composers including Mozart and Beethoven?
I believe you are referring to Domenico Alberti (1710-1740) after whom the Alberti Bass is named. He was not the first to use it, but he used it extensively. Probably the best known example is the opening of Mozart's Sonata #15 in C Major, with the pattern in the left hand following the sequence of c-g-e-g c-g-e-g d-g-f-g c-g-e-g, etc. Probably, this was an intuitive way to "sustain" or reinforce keyboard base lines and harmonies before the existence of the "sustain" pedal (of the modern piano), and at a time when keyboard instruments, including pianos, were lighter in construction and tone. The style continued for a while after the introduction of the pianoforte. Mozart and Beethoven used it, but Mozart more often, I think. You will notice that while it is ubiquitous in Mozart's piano music, it appears less frequently in his orchestral music. There were other effective techniques for producing "sustained" sounds. Check Couperin's "Les Baricades Misterieuses", a beautiful piece for harpsichord that sounds almost as if a sustain pedal is being used. He achieves the effect by "suspending" tones over the bar line.
