Biographie
Ercole Gaibara was active in Bologna during the first half of the 17th century. There is very little information about his life except that he was a very renowned violinist, earning the nickname "del Violino" by his students.[2] He succeeded Alfonso Pagani as the violinist of Concerto Palatino.[3]
The musicologist Marc Pincherle considers him the founder of the École Bolonaise de violon (Bolognese School of Violin)[4] where he taught Arcangelo Corelli, Giuseppe Torelli, Giovanni Benvenuti, Bartolomeo Laurenti and Leonardo Brugnoli,[2][5][6] he may have also taught Alessandro Stradella.[7]
