Bio
Claudio Scimone (1934–2018) was an Italian conductor renowned for his advocacy of Baroque and Classical repertoire. Born in Padua, he founded the ensemble I Solisti Veneti in 1959, which became one of the leading period-instrument groups of its time. Scimone’s recordings for labels such as Erato and Warner Classics helped bring renewed attention to Vivaldi, Albinoni, and other Venetian masters, and he also conducted opera at major houses including La Fenice and the Teatro Regio in Turin.
