dances, but it should be noted that being one of the
greatest he never addressed opera.

Schubert
He was born in Vienna in 1797, dying in the same city in
1828.
We can say that he was somewhere between classicism
and romanticism of which he was one of the precursors.
If he cultivated classical forms such as the symphony or
the sonata, he also did so with ballet and shone in the
lied , which is a poem that has been set to music and is
usually accompanied with piano. With this musical style
he influenced great later composers.

Vivaldi
Antonio Vivaldi was born in Venice in 1678 and died in
Vienna in 1741. He was appointed priest although due
to his delicate health he did not dedicate himself to this
ministry, music being what filled his life.
He was the author of an immense number of musical
works, the instrumental ones being the ones that have
had the most impact. In Vivaldi's work we can look for
concertos for flute, piccolo, oboe, mandolin, lute and
thus we could continue citing a number of instruments
for which he composed his music.
He is responsible for setting the definitive structure of
the concert with its three movements, allegro, adagio
and allegro.
