Pietro Antonio Locatelli was born in 1695 in the Italian city of Bergamo. He was still a young boy when his astonishing talent for playing the violin revealed itself. Joining the Bergamo Cathedral instrumental ensemble as a boy, he left it in 1711 at the age of sixteen to go to Rome. For a violinist on the threshold of his career, Rome was the place to be as it was there that Arcangelo Corelli lived. Although Locatelli did not actually study with Corelli, he certainly absorbed a good deal of his influence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePietro Locatelli's works are mainly for the violin, an instrument on which he was a virtuoso. His most significant publication is probably the Arte del violino, opus 3, a collection of twelve concertos for the instrument which incorporate twenty four technically demanding capriccios (or caprices) - these could function as extended cadenzas, but are now usually extracted and played in isolation from the concertos. He also wrote violin sonatas, a cello sonata, trio sonatas, concerti grossi and a set of flute sonatas (his Op. 2). His early works show the influence of Arcangelo Corelli, while later pieces are closer to Antonio Vivaldi in style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Aryeh Oron, 2008\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"International Music Company (IMC)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46968504680742,"sku":"I2892","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/products\/50000000000I2892.jpg?v=1697513800","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/locatelli-p-sonata-no-1-in-d-major","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
