Which statement is true about Antonio Vivaldi?

Antonio Vivaldi had a significant impact on the development of late Baroque music, and this influence extended to other composers, most notably Johann Sebastian Bach. Vivaldi's concertos are noted for their innovative structure and vibrant rhythms, characteristics that made a lasting impression on Bach. The exposure to Vivaldi's work helped Bach adopt and integrate elements of the "Italian style" into his own compositions, particularly in the use of lively melodic lines and the concerto form itself.

Vivaldi's music was widely disseminated and appreciated during his lifetime and beyond, making the idea that he was forgotten after his death inaccurate. While his influence was certainly strongest in Italy, he was not limited to that geography; his works became known across Europe. Lastly, Vivaldi is best known for his prolific output of concertos, so the notion that he avoided composing them is not true. His concertos are cornerstones of his legacy and critical to the Baroque repertoire.
