Antonio Vivaldi
The Masterworks

Antonio Lucio Vivaldi (4 March 1678 - 28 July 1741), nick-
named il Prete Rosso ("The Red Priest") because of his red 
hair, was a Italian Baroque composer, priest, and virtuoso 
violinist, born in Venice. Recognized as one of the greatest 
Baroque composers, his influence during his lifetime was 
widespread over Europe. Vivaldi is known mainly for compo-
sing instrumental concertos, especially for the violin, as well 
as sacred choral works and over 40 operas. His best known 
work is a series of violin concertos known as The Four Seasons.
Many of his compositions were written for the female music 
ensemble of the Ospedale della Pietà, a home for abandoned 
children where Vivaldi worked from 1703 to 1715 and from 
1723 to 1740. Vivaldi also had some success with stagings 
of his operas in Venice, Mantua and Vienna. After meeting the 
Emperor Charles VI, Vivaldi moved to Vienna hoping for prefer-
ment. The Emperor died soon after Vivaldi's arrival, and the 
composer died a pauper, without a steady source of income.
Though Vivaldi's music was well received during his lifetime,it 
later declined in popularity until its vigorous revival in the first 
half of the 20th century. Today, Vivaldi ranks among the most 
popular and widely recorded Baroque composers.
