Most of Vivaldi's repertoire was rediscovered only in the first half of the 20th century in Turin and Genoa and was published in the second half.

Antonio Lucio Vivaldi (Ma? July 28, 1741), nicknamed il Prete Rosso ('The Red Priest'), was a Baroque composer and Venetian priest, as well as a famous virtuoso violinist, born and raised in the Republic of Venice.
