Welcome to "Albinoni" group! This group is dedicated to a great Baroque composer: Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni.
Welcome to "Albinoni" group!
•Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni (June 8, 1671, Venice, Republic of Venice – January 17, 1751, Venice, Republic of Venice) was a Venetian Baroque composer. While famous in his day as an opera composer, he is mainly remembered today for his instrumental music, some of which is regularly recorded. The "Adagio in G minor" attributed to him (actually a later reconstruction) is one of the most frequently recorded pieces of Baroque music.
Born to a wealthy paper merchant in Venice, he studied violin and singing. Unlike most composers of his time, he did not seek a post at a church or at courts of nobles or royalty. Instead he composed music independently. He wrote some fifty operas, but is most noted for his instrumental music, especially his oboe concertos.
His instrumental music greatly attracted the attention of Johann Sebastian Bach, who wrote at least two fugues on Albinoni's themes and constantly used his basses for harmony exercises for his pupils.
Much of Albinoni's work was lost in World War II with the destruction of the Dresden State Library. Little is known of his life and music after the mid 1720s. The famous Albinoni Adagio in G Minor is a 1945 reconstruction by Remo Giazotto of a fragment from a slow movement of a trio sonata he discovered among the ruins of the State Library.

josusexyman Que hermosa es la música y el sentimiento que Tomasso nos ha regalado. Música por placer, cuando alguien escribía notas para hacer sentir algo, no por dinero como ahora lo hacen la mayoría de los artístas. Si es que se les puede llamar así.
