Luca Antonio Predieri : ウィキペディア英語版 | Luca Antonio Predieri
Luca Antonio Predieri (13 September 1688 – 3 January 1767) was an Italian composer and violinist. A member of a prominent family of musicians, Predieri was born in Bologna and was active there from 1704. In 1737 he moved to Vienna, eventually becoming Kapellmeister to the imperial Habsburg court in 1741, a post he held for ten years. In 1765 he returned to his native city where he died two years later at the age of 78. A prolific opera composer, he was also known for his sacred music and oratorios. Although his operas were largely forgotten by the end of his own lifetime and most of their scores lost, individual arias as well some of his sacred music are still performed and recorded. ==Life==
The son of Vitale Predieri and Maria Menzani, Predieri was born in Bologna to a prominent family of musicians which included organist and composer Giacomo Maria Predieri (1611–1695), singer Antonio Predieri (1650–1710), singer and composer Angelo Predieri (1655–1731), and singer and composer Giacomo Cesare Predieri (1671-1753). He studied the violin with Abondio Bini and Tommaso Vitali, and counterpoint with Giacomo Cesare Predieri, Angelo Predieri, and Giacomo Antonio Perti. He is recorded as having been a viola player in the orchestra of the Basilica of San Petronio in Bologna at the age of 16 and later served as a violinist there from 1706 to 1711.〔Schnoebelen (2001)〕 By 1715 he had composed his first oratorio, ''Santi Cipriano e Giustina'' (Saints Cyprian and Justina), and five operas, the first of which, ''La Partenope'',〔Queen Parthenope, a siren and the legendary founder of Naples〕 inaugurated the Marsigli-Rossi theatre on 28 October 1710. Predieri's compositions gained him an appointment to the Accademia Filarmonica di Bologna in 1716. In 1723 he was elected its ''Principe'' (literally "Prince", but the Academy's traditional name for its presiding officer)〔Schnoebelen (2001); Godt and Rice (2010) p. 277〕 In addition to his duties at the Accademia, Predieri served as the ''maestro di capella'' (music director) at various churches in Bologna including San Paolo Maggiore, Madonna di Galliera, Santa Maria della Vita, and lastly the Cathedral of San Pietro. By the time he left Bologna in 1737 he had composed 25 operas, five oratorios, many pieces of church music, and several secular instrumental works. Predieri became known in Vienna through performances there of his operas, ''Amor Prigioniero'' in 1731, and ''Il sogno di Scipione'', first performed in 1735 as part of the birthday celebrations for Emperor Charles VI.〔Eisen and Keefe (2006) p.462〕 Following the death of Antonio Caldara in December 1736, Johann Fux (at the time Kapellmeister to Charles VI), invited Predieri to Vienna to serve as his assistant. Predieri arrived there towards the end of 1737 and in 1739 was officially appointed Vice Kapellmeister, the post previously held by Caldara. On Fux's death in 1741, he assumed to the duties of Kapellmeister, although he did not use the official title until 1746. During his time in Vienna he composed several more operas, often performed to mark special occasions at the imperial court, two oratorios, a Stabat Mater, and many other pieces of sacred music. Predieri retired as Kapellmeister in 1751, but kept his title and his salary for the remainder of his time in Vienna even though Georg Reutter had taken over his duties.〔Schnoebelen (2001); Carter (1990) pp. 65 & 68〕 In 1765, he returned to his native Bologna where he died on 3 January 1767 at the age of 78.
