Antonia Bembo (ca. 1640 – ca. 1720) was an Italian composer and singer. She was born in Venice and died in Paris. She was the daughter of Giacomo Padoani, a doctor, and married Lorenzo Bembo 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 Petite Union Chrétienne des Dames de Saint Chaumont, a religious community. She was a contemporary of Elisabeth-Claude Jacquet de la Guerre.
Bembo: Habbi pietà di me
In amor ci vuol ardir
Amor mio, facciam la pace
Habbi pietà di me
Cantata Lamento della Vergine
Anima perfida
Ha, que l'Absence
Passan veloci l'hore
Volgete altrove il guardo
Se legge d'amore
