Antonio Salieri (18 August 1750 – 7 May 1825) was an Italian classical composer, conductor, and teacher. He was born in the Republic of Venice, and spent his adult life and career as a subject of the Habsburg Monarchy. He was a cosmopolitan composer and his music was a powerful influence on contemporary composers. He is popularly remembered as a supposedly bitter rival of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
As the Austrian imperial Kapellmeister from 1788 to 1824, he was responsible for music at the court chapel and attached school. Even as his works dropped from performance he still remained one of the most important and sought-after teachers of his generation, and his influence was felt in every aspect of Vienna's musical life. Franz Liszt, Franz Schubert, and Ludwig van Beethoven were among the most famous of his pupils.
Salieri's music slowly disappeared from the repertoire between 1800 and 1868 and was rarely heard after that period until the revival of his fame in the late 20th century. His music today has regained some modest popularity via recordings.
