This Venetian virtuoso and impresario wrote Baroque music. People regard Vivaldi alongside Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel of the greatest Baroque, and his widespread influence during his lifetime across Europe gave origin to many imitators and admirers. He pioneered many developments in orchestration, technique, and programmatic music. He consolidated the emerging form into a widely accepted and paramount followed idiom in the development of instrumental music of Johann Sebastian Bach.

Antonio Vivaldi wrote much for the all-female music ensemble of the Ospedale della Pietà, a home for abandoned children and his employer from 1703 to 1715 and from 1723 to 1740. Vivaldi also succeeded some with expensive stagings of his operas in Venice, Mantua, and Vienna. Vivaldi mainly developed and wrote a variety of especially sacred choral or instrumental music and more than forty of fifty operas. He worked a series.

After meeting Charles VI Habsburg, the emperor, Vivaldi moved to Vienna and expected preferment and royal support. After arrival of Antonio Vivaldi, however, the emperor quickly died. Impoverished Vivaldi died within less than a year.

People received music of Vivaldi during his lifetime, but his musical reputation later declined in popularity for more than two centuries until it underwent a vigorous revival in the first half of the 20th century. Today, Vivaldi ranks among the most popular and widely recorded of Baroque. Scholars devoted much research to his work.

People once lost many works of Vivaldi but rediscovered them in one case as recently as 2006. People regularly and widely play his music in the present day over the world.

Quotes by Antonio Vivaldi (?)

“What pleasure it will give me
to see the soul of my soul,
The heart of my heart
filled with happiness.
And if I must be parted
from the one I love,
I shall spend every moment
in sighing and suffering.”
― Vivaldi
