Pietro Verdina was an italian composer. In 1618, the year when his only published music appeared, he is recorded as a student of the acolytes’ school in Verona and as a pupil of Stefano Bernardi, maestro di cappella at Verona Cathedral. Stefano Pasino (in the dedication of his Sonate, Venice, 1679) said that at one time Verdina lived at Lonato (also in northern Italy)
