    Antonia Bembo

    Antonia Padoani Bembo (ca. 1640 – ca. 1720) was an Italian composer and singer. She was born in Venice and a doctor, and Diana Pareschi (1609-1676); she married the venetian noble Lorenzo Bembo (1637-1703) in 1659. She moved to Paris before 1676, possibly to leave a bad marriage. There she sang for Louis XIV. Louis granted her a pension and housing at the Petite Union Chrétienne des Dames de Saint Chaumont, a religious community. She was a contemporary of Élisabeth Jacquet De La Guerre.
