Mercury Records produced a smattering of big band, dixieland and modern jazz from its inception in 1945 until 1953. Then producer Bob Shad was given a free rein to sign artists and the label began to carve a niche as a major player in the jazz world.

Vivaldi played an extremely significant role in the development of the solo concerto. Tomaso Albinoni is one of the most famous Venetian musicians of his time. Torelli was born in Verona and died in Bologna; he was a violinist and composer. Manfredini's Op.3 No.12 in C major is one of his best-known works. Benedetto Marcello was a lawyer, poet and a composer; his concerto for oboe in D-minor is very famous. Scarlatti was himself one of the greatest harpsichord virtuosi; he was the harpsichordist at the Spanish court in Madrid from 1729 until his death.
