Bio
Giuseppe Tartini (1692–1770) was an Italian Baroque composer, violinist, and music theorist born in Piran, then part of the Republic of Venice. Renowned for his technical mastery of the violin, he composed numerous concertos and sonatas, most famously the "Devil’s Trill Sonata," and established a celebrated violin school in Padua that attracted students from across Europe. Beyond performance, Tartini made lasting contributions to music theory, notably his discovery of difference tones ("Tartini tones") and his treatise on ornamentation, which influenced generations of musicians. His works remain cornerstones of the Baroque violin repertoire.
