CORELLI, ARCANGELO

ärkänˈjālō kōrĕlˈlē, 1653–1713, Italian composer and violinist. Famed for his virtuosity and his elegant style of composition, he spent most of his life in Rome, where he was court violinist to Cardinal Ottoboni. His violin technique was perpetuated by his many students and in his sonatas for violin with harpsichord, among which is the well-known set of variations on the air La Follia. He also helped to establish the typical form of the concerto grosso (see concerto).

See M. Pincherle, Corelli: His Life, His Work (tr., 1956).
