Michelangelo Falvetti (1642–1692) was an Italian Baroque composer as well as a catholic priest. Falvetti was born in Melicuccà in Calabria, Southern Italy on December 29, 1642, but spent most of his life and musical career in Sicily. In 1670, he became 'Maestro di Cappella' in Palermo, and in 1679 founded the 'Unione dei Musici' in that city.[1] In or around 1682 he moved to Messina where he was named 'Maestro di Cappella del Senato di Messina'.
