Antonio Caldara (1670-1736) is a key figure of the European music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Born in Venice, the cradle of the Italian 1600s, he began to work very young as a singer in the choir of San Marco. He quickly became distinguished as a violoncellist, but his activity as composer made him famous and procured positions for him in Mantova (from 1699), then in Rome for the Prince Ruspoli (from 1709), finally in Vienna, as second choir master from 1716 until his death in 1736. Caldara was the author of 78 dramatic works, 42 oratorios, and numerous other sacred and secular music, and he takes his place at the top level of the musical life across two centuries together with Alessandro Scarlatti, Stradella, Corelli and Händel. His production, unfortunately a great part of it is forgotten, was then greatly appreciated. For example, he was defined by Nicolas Bernier as “The most celebrated Italian master of the period”.
