About a Violin Related Best Italian Movies Contact Us Italy has produced some of the finest artists, musicians, and composers of the Baroque period, an influence we enjoy today. Arcangelo Corelli was a composer of rare genius and emotional insight whose work altered the lives and direction of his peer composers, his students, and the style of music across Europe. Arcangelo, meaning Arch Angel in Italian - quite the name to have to live up to - was born in Fusignano, Italy in 1753. Fusignano is a small town noted for its rich, red Lambrusco wines on the northeastern side of the peninsula, not far from the city of Ravenna and the coast of the Adriatic Sea. The popularity of Corelli's compositions was unequalled and it was the most widely played instrumental music in its time. Two generations later, Thomas Jefferson, himself an amateur violinist and music aficionado, is said to have enjoyed Corelli's works above all others. Corelli's mesmerizing Sonata Opus 5 features the "La Folia" variations for violin and accompaniment, which have recently been presented as the musical backbone of the movie "Jefferson in Paris". According to critics and the viewing public, Corelli was the highlight of the film. Additionally, the box office hit "Master and Commander" features extracts from Sonata Opus 6, which nicely accentuates the period film and assists immeasurably in creating a scene's tone and tempo.

Corelli erhielt seinen ersten Musikunterricht bei einem Priester in der Nachbarstadt Faenza , setzte seine Studien in Lugo fort und ging 1666 schlieÃlich nach Bologna , wo er wahrscheinlich von Giovanni Benvenuti und Leonardo Brugnoli unterrichtet wurde. 1670 wurde er in die Accademia Filarmonica von Bologna aufgenommen. SpÃ¤testens 1675 kam Corelli nach Rom, wo er bald als einer der fÃ¼hrenden Violinisten bekannt wurde.

Extractions: BAROQUE COMPOSERS AND MUSICIANS Arcangelo Corelli The Italian composer and violinist Arcangelo Corelli exercised a wide influence on his contemporaries and on the succeeding generation of composers. Born in Fusignano, Italy, in 1653, a full generation before Bach or Handel, he studied in Bologna, a distinguished musical center, then established himself in Rome in the 1670s. By 1679 had entered the service of Queen Christina of Sweden, who had taken up residence in Rome in 1655, after her abdication the year before, and had established there an academy of literati that later became the Arcadian Academy. Thanks to his musical achievements and growing international reputation he found no trouble in obtaining the support of a succession of influential patrons. History has remembered him with such titles as "Founder of Modern Violin Technique," the "World's First Great Violinist," and the "Father of the Concerto Grosso." His contributions can be divided three ways, as violinist, composer, and teacher. It was his skill on the new instrument known as the violin and his extensive and very popular concert tours throughout Europe which did most to give that instrument its prominent place in music. It is probably correct to say that Corelli's popularity as a violinist was as great in his time as was Paganini's during the 19th century. Yet Corelli was not a virtuoso in the contemporary sense, for a beautiful singing tone alone distinguished great violinists in that day, and Corelli's tone quality was the most remarkable in all Europe according to reports. In addition, Corelli was the first person to organize the basic elements of violin technique.

Extractions: At a time when the violin was replacing the viola, the Italian violinist-composer Arcangelo Corelli was in great demand. He had a great influence over the following generation of composers, especially Handel who worked with him for a short time in Rome in 1707. Corelli spent most of his life in Rome, where he served the exiled Catholic Queen Christina of Sweden, Cardinal Pamphili and the young Cardinal Ottoboni, in whose palace he lived for a number of years. He died a wealthy man and was buried in the Pantheon, a sign of the respect in which he was held. Arcangelo Corelli Works Corelli composed only instrumental music, notably 48 Trio Sonatas for two violins and basso continuo (generally harpsichord and cello), twelve sonatas for violin and continuo and twelve concerti grossi, works for string orchestra with a solo group of two violins, cello and harpsichord. MIDI FILE - From Concerto grosso Op.6 No.8: Pastorale The Violin Sonatas include a particularly well known set of variations on the popular dance-tune La Follia, a melody used by many composers of the period.

Extractions: Italian composer and violinist. Corelli was the fifth child born to a prosperous family of landowners; his initial musical study was probably with the local clergy, then in nearby Lugo and Faenza, and finally in Bologna, where he went in 1666. His studies there were with Giovanni Benvenuti and Leonardo Brugnoli, the former representing the disciplined style of the Accademia filarmonica (to which Corelli was admitted in 1670), the latter a virtuoso violinist. By 1675 (and perhaps as early as 1671) Corelli was in Rome; he may have studied composition under Matteo Simonelli, from whom he would have absorbed the styles of Roman polyphony inherited from Palestrina . A trip to France has been postulated during these years, as has a visit to Spain, but neither has been securely documented. In 1675 he is listed as one of the subordinate violinists ("Arcangelo bolognese") in Roman payment documents; by 1679 he had begun to lead Roman orchestras. In 1680 he may have visited Germany; the later dedications of his op. 5 (to Electress Sophie Charlotte of Brandenburg) and op. 6 (to the Elector Palatine Johann Wilhelm) support the idea of direct connections between die composer and German courts. From 1681 until his death he was in Rome, making only a few trips (one to Naples in 1702 to play in

C Arcangelo Corelli was born at Fusignano in 1653 into a family that had enjoyed considerable prosperity since the fifteenth century. Legend even suggested descent from the Roman general Coriolanus and further improbable anecdotes surround a childhood during which he seems to have taken music lessons from a priest at Faenza, continued at Lugo, before, in 1666, moving to the famous musical centre of Bologna, where he was able to study the violin under teachers of the greatest distinction, their precise identity subject to various conjectures. The basilica of S. Petronio in Bologna boasted a musical establishment of considerable prestige under Maurizio Cazzati, with some 33 musicians. In addition the city had been the home of a number of learned academies since the middle of the sixteenth century, largely replaced in 1666 by the Accademia Filarmonica, an association that came to exercise wide influence. In 1690 Cardinal Pamphili was appointed papal legate to Bologna and Corelli moved to the Palazzo della Cancelleria, of the newly created Cardinal Pietro Ottoboni, the gifted young great-nephew of Pope Alexander VIII, who had acceded to the papacy in 1689. Cardinal Ottoboni remained Corelli's patron until the latter's death in 1713, thereafter behaving with generosity to his heirs. In Rome Corelli was held in great respect as a violinist and as a composer, although stories of less satisfactory performances during a visit to Naples, where he was defeated by the violin-writing of his colleague Alessandro Scarlatti, and of his inability to cope with the allegedly French style of the young Handel, suggest, at least, some technical limitations.

Corelli's popularity as a violinist was equaled by his acclaim as a composer. His music was performed and honored throughout all Europe; in fact, his was the most popular instrumental music. It is important to note in this regard that a visit of respect to the great Corelli was an important part of the Italian tour of the young Handel. Yet Corelli's compositional output was rather small. All of his creations are included in six opus numbers, most of them being devoted to serious and popular sonatas and trio sonatas.

Extractions: Corelli, Arcangelo (1653-1713) Arcangelo Corelli, born in 1653 in Fusignano, an Italian village between Ravenna and Bologna, was one of the seventeenth century's most widely admired composers and performers. His music has lasting appeal largely due to its refined sense of poise, the balance of all the forces within each composition, and its modern tonality. Some works are regarded as models of perfection, and Corelli himself has been called "a modern Orpheus." Corelli's music is rigidly formal and simple in design, but nevertheless original. It achieves magnificent effects with a surprising economy of means. Corelli used intriguing sequential progressions and descending bass figurations that are typical of operatic laments. He helped achieve a new independent status for chamber works such as the Trio Sonatas that were formerly regarded as merely decorative. Sponsor Message.
