Musical Moments: Adagio in G Minor
Musical Moments features music and artists I've enjoyed over the years.
This week's selection is the famous Adagio in G Minor.
Adagio in G minor for violin, strings and organ continuo, is a neo-Baroque composition popularly attributed to the 18th-century Venetian master Tomaso Albinoni, but actually composed by the 20th-century musicologist and Albinoni biographer Remo Giazotto, purportedly based on the discovery of a manuscript fragment of Albinoni, according to Wikipedia.
It has been the background music for a number of films, including Rollerball, Gallipoli and Flashdance, Wikipedia reports.
I hope you'll enjoy it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1krdb1b4UI
