Vittorio Monti est un compositeur et chef d'orchestre italien né à Naples le 6 janvier 1868 et mort dans la même ville le 20 juin 1922.
​
Vittorio Monti est né à Naples où il a étudié le violon et la composition au Conservatorio di San Pietro a Majella. Vers 1900 il devint le chef de l'Orchestre Lamoureux à Paris, pour lequel il a écrit plusieurs ballets et opérettes.

Sa seule œuvre connue est Csárdás. Elle fut initialement composée pour violon, mandoline ou piano. Elle fut rapidement arrangée pour toutes sortes d'ensembles, cet air rappelant aux gens les vieilles danses hongroises avec la juxtaposition de passages rapides et lents. D'après le site Musicalics, il aurait composé deux opéras-comiques en français, donc sans doute à Paris, vers 1900.

Vittorio Monti (6 January 1868 – 20 June 1922) was an Italian composer, violinist, mandolinist and conductor. 

He was born in Naples, where he studied violin and composition at the Conservatorio di San Pietro a Majella. Around 1900 he received an assignment as the conductor for the Lamoureux Orchestra in Paris, where he wrote several ballets and operettas, for example, Noël de Pierrot. He also wrote a method for mandolin Petite Méthode pour Mandoline, 98049, in which he included some of his own works, Perle Brillante, Dans Una Gondola, and Au Petit Jour.
Csardas(Czardas), meaning hungarian dance, is a theme used by many composers. Vittorio Montit's csardas was his most famous work, which was composed around 1904, and possible in Paris where he had been appointed the conductor of Lamoureux orchestra since 1900.
