THEMA Biography, Literature and Literary studies
Synopsis The two brilliant initiators of Baroque music, Claudio Monteverdi, father of opera, and Antonio Vivaldi, master of the violin, lived in different times, but they had commonalities: they both performed a large part of their vast work in Venice and unenthusiastically embraced priesthood. Monteverdi struggled in vain to achieve the professional and economic recognition he desired. Vivaldi successfully fought a serious pulmonary weakness that afflicted him from birth. Both died at an advanced age for the time.
