Antonio Vandini
(Bologna, - Bologna, 1778)
Italian cellist and composer. Nothing is known about his early life or musical training. His first documented playing position is at the church of Santa Maria Maggiore in Bergamo which he obtained in April of 1720. He was also at the Ospedale della Pietà in Venice as maestro di violoncello from September 1720 to April 1721. On 9 June 1721 he was appointed cellist at the Paduan Basilica di Sant’Antonio in a post he held the rest of his life, only interrupted on 18 June 1722, when he resigned in order to go to Prague. There he participated in the musical celebrations for the coronation of Karl VI in June 1723; he was joined there by Giuseppe Tartini and together remained in the service of Count Ferdinand Francesco Kinsky until spring 1726. This year he returned, together with Tartini, to Padua, resuming his service at the Basilica di Sant’Antonio on 1 June 1726. He retired from service at Padua in June 1770, probably been succeded by his pupil Giuseppe Callegari. By 1776 he was in Bologna, where he died two years later. As a composer, he left a cello concerto and six cello sonatas (1717).
