couldn’t study, because schools were very expensive. When he was a
priest, he taught to play instruments to the girls of the school. And he
liked music. At the beginning Vivaldi used his talent in his class, but later
he realized his talent was only and special. People listened to his small
songs and they liked them. And he obtained more popularity; he made a
decision and he used this opportunity.
During his lifetime Vivaldi was successful because in 1711 he had public
concerts in Amsterdam, the concerts named “L' Estro Armonico”. His
fame spread all over Europe. Vivaldi is famous now because he composed
a song named “The Four Seasons” and it became a very famous and
lovely song.
