In the Republic of Venice Alessandro Marceilo, a movement from whose D minor Oboe Concerto is included here, was a relatively unimportant figure, like Albinoni, whose style is so ably copied by Remo Giazorto in the popular Adagio. Of greater contemporary and posthumous importance was Antonio Vivaldi, a priest, known in Venice as it perte rosso from the colour or his hair. Vivaldi spent much of his working life in the employment of one of the four famous musical orphanages, the Ospedale delta Pieta, where girls might receive a remarkably thorough training in the art.
