Thank you for your comment! 🌟 You're correct that the famous Adagio in G minor is attributed to Remo Giazotto, who based it on a fragment by Albinoni. It's fascinating how a modern composition can become so intertwined with the legacy of a baroque composer. We appreciate your insight and hope you continue to enjoy exploring the beautiful world of classical music with us! 🎶

@@classicalcrescendo , Unfortunately, modern research has shown that the "Albinoni sketch" does not exist, it is 100% the work of Remo Giazotto.

Thank you for your follow-up comment! 🌟 It's indeed fascinating how the world of music history and scholarship evolves over time. While recent research supports the view that the famous Adagio in G minor is a composition by Remo Giazotto, entirely based on his own creativity rather than a fragment by Albinoni, this discussion underscores the richness and complexity of musical heritage. To provide some historical context: Remo Giazotto declared that he based the Adagio on a fragment of a manuscript by Tomaso Albinoni. Giazotto claimed to have found this fragment in the ruins of the Dresden State Library after World War II. According to Giazotto, the fragment consisted of a basso continuo and six bars of melody. He asserted that he reconstructed and completed the work based on this fragment. Controversies Giazotto's claims have never been conclusively verified, leading to several controversies: Manuscript Not Found: No one has ever seen the supposed fragment by Albinoni, and there are no documented proofs of its existence. This has led many to doubt the veracity of Giazotto's story. Regardless of the veracity of the manuscript story, we must acknowledge Giazotto's significant contribution to classical music. The Adagio remains a beloved piece that continues to touch the hearts of listeners worldwide, regardless of its exact origins. The beauty of music lies not only in its historical authenticity but also in its emotional impact and the discussions it inspires. 🎶 Thank you for engaging in this insightful conversation, and we hope you continue to enjoy the enchanting world of classical music with us! 🌍✨

@@classicalcrescendo Note also that the "Albinoni motif" is not independent. See, for example, Mozart, Horn Concerto No. 4, first movement; Beethoven, Piano Sonata No. 31,3movement--Adagio; Wieniawski, Polonaise in D major, middle section

Thank you for your insightful observations! 🌟 It's indeed fascinating to see how musical motifs can traverse different compositions and eras. Regarding the "Albinoni motif" you mentioned: - Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 4, First Movement: This concerto, written for Joseph Leutgeb, a renowned horn player of Mozart's time, showcases Mozart's playful yet sophisticated use of themes. The recurring motifs and lyrical passages in this concerto highlight Mozart's genius in blending virtuosic demands with melodic charm. - Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 31, 3rd Movement - Adagio: Beethoven's late piano sonatas are known for their profound depth and innovation. The Adagio of Sonata No. 31 is particularly notable for its introspective and almost improvisational quality, demonstrating Beethoven's ability to convey deep emotion and complex ideas through seemingly simple motifs. - Wieniawski's Polonaise in D Major, Middle Section: Wieniawski, a virtuoso violinist and composer, infused his works with Polish folk elements and brilliant technical passages. The middle section of his Polonaise in D Major is a perfect example of his skill in combining lyrical melodies with dazzling violin techniques. These examples illustrate the rich tapestry of classical music, where themes and motifs often reappear, sometimes consciously borrowed, and other times coincidentally similar. It's a testament to the shared musical language that spans across different composers and periods. As an additional point of interest, many composers have been known to engage in musical borrowing or referencing as a form of homage or inspiration. For instance, Beethoven himself was greatly inspired by Mozart, and you can find traces of Mozart's influence throughout Beethoven's works. Thank you for bringing up such an interesting topic!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! The Adagio in G minor by Albinoni, especially when arranged for piano, does evoke strong emotions. While some may find its flowing rhythm reminiscent of a dance, its essence as a deeply moving and contemplative piece is undeniable. Perhaps the interpretation of the performer has added a unique twist! 🎹✨

@@classicalcrescendo , pay attention to bars 9 to 13. Typically waltz accompaniment. Giazotto's original has nothing like this.

Thank you again for your insightful comments. 🌟 It's clear that you have a deep knowledge and passion for classical music, and we appreciate your contributions to this discussion. Regarding the specific details of bars 9 to 13 and the waltz-like accompaniment, it is indeed fascinating how such nuances can provide insights into the compositional style and authorship. While your points highlight the ongoing debates among musicologists about the exact origins and characteristics of the Adagio in G minor, we should also recognize the artistic value and emotional resonance of the piece itself. Remo Giazotto's work, whether based on Albinoni's fragment or not, has left an indelible mark on the classical music repertoire and continues to be cherished by audiences worldwide. The discussions and analyses it inspires are a testament to its enduring significance. We believe that respectful and constructive dialogue is essential in the exploration of music history and appreciation. We hope to continue sharing our love for music in a positive and engaging manner. Thank you for your understanding and for being part of this vibrant community. 🎶

@@classicalcrescendo Not only these bars, but also numbers 14, 17 and a whole series of bars. It is enough to ruin the sleeve for the coat to become unusable. These bars are like holes eaten by moth caterpillars.

Thank you for your comment! 🌟 It's clear that you're passionate about the structural integrity and cohesiveness of musical compositions. The analogy of bars as moth-eaten holes affecting the entirety of a piece is a vivid one. In classical music, the integration and development of thematic material are crucial. Every measure and motif contribute to the overall narrative and emotional arc of a piece. When certain bars seem out of place or disrupt the flow, it can indeed feel like a well-crafted garment with a flawed seam. It's interesting to consider how different composers handle such challenges. For instance, Beethoven was known for revising his compositions extensively, sometimes over many years, to achieve the precise effect he desired. Similarly, Mozart's genius lay in his ability to weave seemingly simple themes into intricate and cohesive structures effortlessly. On the other hand, some modern composers embrace these "imperfections" as a part of their artistic expression, using dissonance and unconventional structures to challenge listeners' expectations and evoke unique responses. Your perspective adds depth to the conversation about the importance of each bar in a composition. It's through such discussions that we can appreciate the meticulous craftsmanship that goes into creating enduring musical works. We value your keen observations and look forward to more of your thoughts on our future videos. Thank you for engaging with us and helping to deepen our appreciation of classical music! 🎶✨
