Vivaldi, the Red Priest is an Italian film created and directed by Liana Marabini in 2009, about the life of composer Antonio Vivaldi, who was also a Catholic priest.

  • Piers Adams' quartet Red Priest needs little introduction as one of the foremost baroque ensembles in the world - and certainly the most dynamic and original.

Red Priest Composer

I believe the answer is:

The Red Headed Priest Composer

'he composed' is the definition.
(composer Antonio Vivaldi)
'line in exam papers the wrong way' is the wordplay.
'line' becomes 'l'.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'exam' becomes 'viva' (short for 'viva voce', an oral examination).
'papers' becomes 'ID' (identification papers).
'the wrong way' is a reversal indicator.
'id' reversed gives 'di'.
'viva'+'di'='vivadi'
'l' inserted within 'vivadi' is 'VIVALDI'.

(Other definitions for vivaldi that I've seen before include 'Italian composer, Antonio (d. 1741)', 'Venetian composer ('The Red Priest'), d. 1741', 'Italian composer of 'The Four Seasons', 'Italian composer (the Red Priest) , d.1741', 'Baroque Venetian composer, d.1741'.)
