Antonio Vivaldi (3/04/1678 - 7/28/1741)

The Italian composer and violinist Antonio Vivaldi was born in Venice in 1678 and after his ordination in 1703 embarked on an intermittent career in the service of the Ospedale della Pietà, an institution for the education of orphan, illegitimate or indigent girls; it was an establishment with a formidable musical reputation. His later career brought involvement in opera. As a composer Vivaldi was prolific, with some 500 concertos to his credit in addition to a quantity of works for the church and for the theatre. He left Venice in 1741 in the apparent hope of finding new patrons in Vienna, where he died shortly after his arrival in the city.

Church Music

The surviving church music of Vivaldi includes the well-known Gloria, in addition to a number of settings of psalms and motets.

Operas

None of the 50 or so operas of Vivaldi remains in standard repertoire, although some are now once again making their appearance.
