| abstract | - Francesco Antonio Bonporti (11 June 1672 - 19 December 1749) was an Italian priest and amateur composer. He was born in Trento. In 1691, he was admitted in the Collegium Germanicum in Rome, where he studied theology. There, he studied composition under the guidance of Giuseppe Ottavio Pitoni and, although it's not confirmed, violin with Arcangelo Corelli. Back in the native Trento he was ordinated a priest in 1695. In 1740 he moved to Padua, where he lived until his death. He influenced Johann Sebastian Bach in the development of the invention, and in fact several of his works were mistakenly included in a set of Bach's inventions. In reality, Bach had transcripted for harpsichord four violin pieces from Bonporti's op. X (1712). Bonporti's musical work is comprised of twelve opera, published between 1896 and 1836. He died in Padua in 1749.
