Vittorio Rieti
(28 Janvier 1898, Alexandrie, Égypte - 19 février 1994, New York City, USA)
Vittorio Rieti s'installe à Milan en 1917. Il y fait des études d'économie (Université Bocconi où il soutient une thèse sur l'économie turque)
mais aussi de piano avec Giuseppe Frugatta et de composition
avec Ottorino Respighi, Gian Francesco Malipiero et Alfredo Casella.
En 1925 il s'établit à Paris où il compose de la musique de ballet pour George Balanchine et les ballets russes de Diaghilev (Barabau).
Puis, compte tenu de l'antisémitisme fasciste ambiant, il s'exile à New York en 1940.
Aux États-Unis il enseigne dans différentes écoles des musiques, comme le Hunter College de New York (1960-1964), à Baltimore et à Chicago.
Il obtient la nationalité américaine en 1944.
