	Arcangelo Corelli - LoveToKnow 1911
		ARCANGELO CORELLI (1653-1713), Italian violin-player and composer, was born on the 12th or 13th of February 1653, at Fusignano near Imola, and died in 1713.
		Corelli died possessed of a sum of 120,000 marks and a valuable collection of pictures, the only luxury in which he had indulged.
		Corelli's compositions are distinguished by a beautiful flow of melody and by a masterly treatment of the accompanying parts, which he is justly said to have liberated from the strict rules of counterpoint.

	HOASM: Arcangelo Corelli
		Corelli was the fifth child born to a prosperous family of landowners; his initial musical study was probably with the local clergy, then in nearby Lugo and Faenza, and finally in Bologna, where he went in 1666.
		By 1675 (and perhaps as early as 1671) Corelli was in Rome; he may have studied composition under Matteo Simonelli, from whom he would have absorbed the styles of Roman polyphony inherited from Palestrina.
		Corelli's treatment differs fundamentally from that of his predecessors, for whereas they had merely detached small groups from a main orchestral body from time to time to vary the texture, he opposes a fixed 'concertino' string trio of two violins and cello to a 'ripieno' string band, each group having its own continuo.

		Arcangelo, meaning Arch Angel in Italian - quite the name to have to live up to - was born in Fusignano, Italy in 1753.
		Corelli's seemingly limitless abilities as a composer would surely have preserved his name through time, but he was also an outstanding violinist as well a gifted teacher.

		Arcangelo Coreffi was at work preparing his Opus Six in 1711 and wrote a dedication for the collection in 1712.
		Francesco Geminiani noted the "uncommon accuracy" of their performance and marvelled at the unison bowings Corelli demanded, so that "at his rehearsals, which constantly preceded every public performance of his concertos, he would immediately stop the hand if he discovered one irregular bow".
		The opening movement is followed in all the concerti except II by a movement in a slower tempo and a pair of faster movements, with an interpolated slow movement in Concerto V. Corelli's imagination in effects of texture and his range of stylistic reference are as rich as his command of formal variety.
