Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAU-CHA
CESTI , MARC' ANTONIO (162o ?1669 ?), Italian musical composer, was
born
  at
Florence
  about 162o. He was a
pupil
  of Carissimi, and after holding a
post
  somewhere in
Florence
  as
maestro
  di cappella entered the papal
chapel
  in 166o. In 1666 he became Vice-Kapellmeister at Vienna, and died at Venice in 1669. Cesti is known principally as a composer of operas, the most celebrated of which were La Dori (Venice, 1663) and II Pomo d' oro (Vienna, 1668). He was also a composer of chamber-cantatas, and his operas are notable for the pure and delicate
style
  of their airs, more suited to the chamber than to the stage.
