Antonio Vivaldi lived a very long time ago.  He was a priest in Italy but he was also a composer.  Even as a young child, music was his passion but his parents had decided that he would become a priest.  But he wasn't a very devoted priest and he was eventually put in charge of a group of orphans and taught them to play the violin.  Here he was able to follow his dreams of composing and performing music.
