Albinoni-Giazotto

Adagio

Strings and Organ

Manager's Note: Wikipedia notes that Giazotto, a musicologist, "arranged (1949) the famous Adagio in G minor based on a fragment of the bass part of the composition by Albinoni in 1945, discovered in Dresden State Library shortly after the Second World War (at that time, he was also completing his biography and catalogue). The fragment contained only the bass line and is believed to have been the slow movement of a trio sonata or concerto." This is thus the only selection labelled "baroque", "contemporary" and "urtext".

S453 arr. Isaac, 1st and 2nd movements

Symphonic Section No. 4

Manager's Note: the "2nd movement" mentioned here is the ending Allegro.
In some editions, a Adagio second movement of solo violin and basso continuo precedes the closing Allegro, as recorded by Arthur Grumiaux on EMI.
In other cases, it is either ommited as it is in the arrangement by Merle J. Isaac, or a short cadencial section of two chords connects the two fast movements, as is with the Peters edition.
