Starting as a teacher in 1703, Vivaldi had as his pupils the girls at the Ospedale, for whom music was a key part of their curriculum.
Vivaldi spent most of his career at a single institution – the Ospedale della Pietà, a home for the illegitimate children of Venetian noblemen and courtiers. At the age of 15, he began to study for the priesthood, and was ordained as a Roman Catholic priest in 1703. He studied music as a child with his father, a violinist.
