None other than the "Red Priest" himself: Antonio Vivaldi.
Anna Maria della Pietà (c.1696 – 1782), was an Italian violinist, composer and teacher based in the Venetian orphanage Ospedale della Pietà.

Antonio Vivaldi wrote pieces for her. She remained at the orphanage throughout her life. Aside from the violin, Anna Maria was adept on many other musical instruments.
