Arcangelo Corelli

Artist

Arcangelo Corelli

Arcangelo Corelli (17 February 1653–8 January 1713) was an influential Italian violinist and composer of baroque music.

Corelli was born at Fusignano, in the present-day province of Ravenna. Little is known about his early life. His master on the violin was Bassani, and Matteo Simonelli, the well-known singer of the pope’s chapel, taught him composition.

His first major success was gained in Paris at the age of nineteen, and to this he owed his European reputation. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Arcangelo+Corelli">Read more on Last.fm</a>
