Albinoni- Adagio in G Minor

[TheBatura]

This piece is like a total description of what we, humans, are, how we are, and what the world around us is, and why it is, and how it is. Shortly: Truly God Inspired Music.

I always think of the people I lost when I hear this, but not only. This music is much bigger than just that.

[MsContessina]

Simply Divine!

[TheXatzipanagis78]

music is magico

[metalim]

This is really funeral. It's not for common listening. Faster version is.

[MrDennyify]

This is really art. I'm 18 years old and listening this with love. Age is not important if you know what art is.

[uchihanis]

@MrDennyify ur not the only one :)

[danirvila13]

@MrDennyify elarte es morirte de frio

[MrDennyify]

@danirvila13 Si, despues de diez anos no voy a hacer el arte. Perdon para mal Espanol.

dansk. når man ser dette lys, mindes man en hel masse fortid- nutid, som skal arbejdes ud af kroppen, hver en lille ting, der er hændt, mindes man på sjælden, og kroppen giver sin ende i en anden verden, som igen må bearbejdes ud

[MrArchangelLucifer]

funeral music.

[rishabisgood]

I used to listen to music, but then I took an scissor to the ear.

[M3town33]

Don't forget that it's very Italian, even though it's a more relaxed piece.

[clublifee20]

Beautiful sampled by Tiesto!

[Mountchoirboy]

I searched so long to hear this as I did not know the name-Glad I found this haunting beauty

[marjanajevsenak]

@Mountchoirboy

Indeed, haunting it is.

[Ginnoc1]

é una musica che accompagna tanti momenti della nostra vita

[PervyMari]

Absolutely beautiful.

[fatihdemir93]

Goodbye my dearest granny, yesterday you left us...my childhood just died with you. May you rest in peace and find grandpa Sidney along...

[lamez63]

I 24  non mi piace è perché pensano sia una cover della Fabian....come si fa a non amare un simile capolavoro...tristezza e dolcezza....armonia e passione!!

[karennorwegian]

There's a reason why some classical pieces are so well known to so many millions of music lovers. They remain in your auditory memory and replay over and over during the day if you've been listening to them enough times.

[marjanajevsenak]

It is an absolute song and poem of devine Love. Sublime.

[UpwardsFallings]

Last time I checked this was in a faster tempo. Hmm.... :S

[MissMusicMermaid]

that just made me cry...



[luisfcoliveira]

no piece of music has ever given me so many multiple convulsions of pleasure as this one

[bearmanmr]

this tune always runs me through - it empties me but its good to let go sometimes - fall as my tears do Thank you

[erdevnarayan]

I don't belong to western culture, but then i hear this, cry, then come back, hear this and again cry.....I have been doing this for years....Why do i want to hear something again again which makes me cry? Can anyone tell me?

[CanijAsa]

@erdevnarayan MasterPiece

[erdevnarayan]

@CanijAsa Yes, exactly. Though it makes me cry, there is this elusive grandeur, suspense and even a calming feeling in the music with its perfectly slow paced twists and turns, ups and downs, pauses and starts, giving that ethereal quality..it is a music for the soul, beyond religions, beyond cultures. 

[Hunorrrr]

This is an orchestra ? Or what instrument is this ? PLEASE, HELP ME!

[MissMusicMermaid]

@Hunorrrr its a string orchestra. not just one instrument.

[Hunorrrr]

@MissMusicMermaid Thank you.

[GOLTURBO555]

Masterpiece, almost crying... Superb, thanks for sharing it

[StealthGenius]

this is by far the best performance of this magnificent piece...thank you sooo much for sharing 

[CamelliaSpyder]

Dark, sad song but nice. Just beautiful!!

[autopsist]

This was played at my great grandfather's funeral when the march to the grave started.

[marisa75785]

crear esta belleza es hacer uso de un don maravilloso.

[mihaicoli]

wow... feels ... like flying..... over the edge..... of the building. Not to be listened in dark moments.

[paradoxicus]

¡Bien!..pero el barroco no es el romanticísmo.

[RTO41]

I prefer to be dead than live in a world without music.

[budbuddingdingMUSE]

@RTO41 If it wasn't here... then you wouldn't know about it to want to die ;) haha think about that :P

[Luigivampa1]

@RTO41 The music is always inside you. It is your soul. Remember.

[BramNetherlands]

Dearest Elise,

May your soul rest in God's hand.

Remember the youngest day and His promises; we shall meet again!!

Mum, Jonathan, Dad.

[svartelf]

@BramNetherlands nou is ek hartseer, ek dink aan julle.

[BramNetherlands]

@svartelf Bedankt voor de hart onder de riem

[1illusionsanddreams]

In my city, this is the composition which played in every funeral. It's crushing my heart.

[Ninanjuttuja]

Good bye my dearssss!!!!

[ELZBIETAZMUDA]

Pieknie zilustrowana muzyka - brawo

[piikkausmestari1966]

Hei iskä! Albinoni soi ja kukkuu...

[554433211pp]

This is one of my all time favorite pieces of music. Incredibly beautiful.

[XProductions92]

When i hear this music, it always reminds to "Gallipoli" (1981) from Peter Weir, an awesome masterpiece of a movie, with this great music!

[bluewhale41]

Goosebumps goosebumps. Marvelous!

[HorwardBrady]

This song is great! :D

One question. Where did you get these pictures? I'd really like to know. :D

[barneynoir]

spring is coming !!!! nature open up everything.........

[lalyshams]

so emotional

[xXturbo86Xx]

what version is this? i haven't heard it before. the tempo is the main difference i notice among other more subtle ones. can you enlighten me please?

[MORPHEUX67]

@xXturbo86Xx Con gusto: Adagio en G menor del Maestro Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni, interpretada por la "Berliner Philharmoniker" dirigida magistralmente por el Maestro Herbert Von Karajan (uno de los mejores directores de todos los tiempos).

[DISARONNO1974]

Nonononono. Es una probable reconstrucción hecha en 1958 por el musicólogo Remo Giazzotto en base al hallazgo en las ruinas de una biblioteca de Dresden en Alemania de un manuscrito que contenía 6 compases de una sonata para trío de Albinoni.

[058janusz]

Nie pozwól go zmarnować i przeżyć na próżno...

[darkangel2347]

Sorry for the mutiple posts. At the time my internet connection was not very good and I just wanted my post to go in just once. But somehow all 3 attempts did get in.

[darkangel2347]

Used in Episode 13 of Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" TV series. And how fitting too. And sampled by Tiesto in "Athena" in 2004 on the "Parade Of The Athletes" CD. If you did not know, this piece of music was stored in Dresden and that place was fire bombed in February 1945 wiping out most of the works inside it. A fragment of this piece did survive and was redone by Albinoni. By the way episode 13 of Cosmos deals with the future survival (or not, it's up to us!) of the human race.

[Nunsweepit421]

@darkangel2347 Actually, the Work was completed by musicologist Remo Giazotto.

@darkangel2347 Just to respond ona lighter note..what beautiful music!!!

[vince89130]

Attention je vais chialer dans quelques secondes ...... 3  2 1 ça y est je pleure !!! trop beau !!! SUPERBO !!!

[santolara1]

Very beautiful, great music! It's like the life of man alone , sad, hopeless...

[roberto16819]

absolut magnifica melodia cei care au dat dislake se pare ca nu stie sa aprecieze muzica de super calitate care nu va murii niciodata

[mioieiingura]

@roberto16819 se pare ca nici tu "nu stie" sa scrie deloc ! De acord, absolut magnifica este compozitia .

[rayandreina]

Ideal funeral music.

[hannibal2007LECTER]

@rayandreina ideal wedding music, :))

[boredandwise]

wow , this is one of those that u can just edit , pretty much with anything .

[BaroqueMusicOnly]

Albinoni made it but did not compose it

[Kurobisu]

Why am I crying?

[ashkibala1]

@Kurobisu me too :'(

[TSpike73]

@Kurobisu You were slicing onions.

[iletmedya]

@Kurobisu

coz so extra touching,my tears are flowing too.

[msanm5]

@Kurobisu because you´re an idiot who can´t control yourself

[marleengregoir]

@Kurobisu , because you are beautiful !!

[mesho512]

@Kurobisu the same reason i'm crying for .... this is beyond beauty this is something from other world

[MiinniiMoon]

@Kurobisu 'cause you're beautiful!

[tearlly]

@Kurobisu it was 2 am and you were really tired. It happens to me sometimes. Seriously though, if I'm tired enough, I can cry for hours because of a song. And then once I stop crying, I pass out. I think the longest time I've cried non-stop was 3 hours.

[EverDarkEden]

@Kurobisu When a song touches your heart, theres nothing else you can do.

[TheBrendadale]

@Kurobisu because such beautiful music is touching you

[clothearednincompoop]

@Kurobisu

Because someone ruined this wonderful piece of music by playing it too slow?

[XxironalexX666]

@Kurobisu Damn...I'm crying too

[jimamia77]

Matt can't do this.

[EIREANNAIGHCS]

muse resistance ? very like this

[BigTimeJonas]

So amazing *__*

[umpaci]

Vasselin, ringrazio Dio per averti dato il dono tanto prezioso di poter trasmettere attraverso le corde del tuo violino sentimenti così profondi.

[rococoness]

heartbreaking ;_;

[KorinaST]

For my friends Silvija & Davor...Rest in peace ! <3

[VeroniqueCG]

A tad too slow. The score itself is a wonderful tug at the heartstrings and mine are as tugged as the next person's. A clever composition in minor chords. They always get us going. There must be a vibrational connection between our heart beats and minor chords.

There are studies on minor chords and the way we are affected. I think they make sense and in no way detract from the feeling that overwhelms me when I hear this. I still hug myself with my eyes shut and rocking in my chair blown away.

[orichalcum1]

tempo way too slow....

[LoelaFox]

Prachtig stuk, dit graag op mijn crematie!!

[LoelaFox]

As fast as a leopard.

Then lets see you do it!

[JUSTOAST]

@theliberator1 Yes, 'Gallipoli'.

[jecika73]

not religious really. but theres something divine in it.

[squevedoh]

Quiero agradecer a todas las personas que han pasado para dejar su huella en mi espacio. A veces me alejo por periodos largos, más siempre retorno.

Nuevamente gracias y mi cariño eterno para ustedes,

Los admiro,

For Christian, Sandy and the little 6 years old who are not with us anymore.

With love.

[AllyKauffman]

Maravillosa

[Noehum]

increible!



[boneheadorwhat]

The hand of god touched those who create such masterpieces as this.

[MrStevie1507]

@boneheadorwhat this kind a music goes even higher then any religeon on earth

[lalyshams]

@MrStevie1507 youre so right!

[kirkhammett1993]

@boneheadorwhat what if they're atheists?

[boneheadorwhat]

@kirkhammett1993

As you have had the mental capacity to pose this question, I have to wonder why you need to seek the answer from me.

Is your power of reasoning so slight that engagement of brain stimulus results only in spasmodic movement of fingertips on a keyboard? If the former is indeed true I look forward to your next syllable with eager anticipation. :-)

[kirkhammett1993]

@boneheadorwhat hold your horses joseph ducreux. It is quite improperly said "spasmodic" because I actually control what I write and the way I move my fingers and that is usually done in an organized manner. Anyway, I was just trying to point out the fact that it is useless and quite irrational to regard his talent as a result of a mythical and imaginary influence. Nonetheless, it is a fabulous opus, yet I do think that its beauty and grace comes solely from Albinoni's dedication and hard work

[rufiel83]

@boneheadorwhat it wasn't god, it was opium

[boneheadorwhat]

@rufiel83 Open season for Gonks I see?

[mOrGeN2304]

Me enamore... Simplemente hermosa!!

Personal matters should be kept to ones self.

[matsedenwall]

on my grandpas funeral this tuesday to come :'(

[kiwicocco]

ci vuole una sensibilità rara per comporre questo brano con queste melodie, posso solo immaginare l'animo dell'artista e il significato che volesse dare al brano... Grazie Albinoni

[muselover72]

Thomas J. McDonnell April 5, 1936-August 4, 2011 Rest in peace

[jorgeluizdasilvafera]

Amo esse Adagio, pois fala muito alto ao meu coração. Na verdade, tem muito haver com a minha alma, com pretéritos da minha alma, que estão sendo novamente vivenciados nessa encarnação. Ah, se eu pudesse nesse momento fazer uma regressão, e com a volta das cenas do passado de minha alma, tenho certeza que veria muitos acontecimentos, que teriam esse adagio como trilha sonora.

[mkai4492]

This song makes me sad! You dont just hear the Emotion. You feel it too

[VeroniqueCG]

@mkai4492 No, no, no. Not sad. It fills me with an intense fierceness of pure, sharp sound. It lets me soar with its highest notes and allows me to draw on its minor chords for tears, but no, not sadness. I become very aware of me and my world when listening to this. Minors are good.

It is not the only piece of music to evince these feelings. Largos and adagios are made to pull emotions from their closeted hiding place and let you soar with honest feeling. That's not sad. That's wonderful.

[jjrosaria2]

fuck the 22 people who disliked and likes rap.. I love this song I listen to this every time I work

[Seanqw3]

I'm not sure if this is the original tempo to the piece, but compared to other versions this slower pacing completely changes the feel of the song. Much more melancholic and solemn.

[MrBufondelaverdad]

the server garden ,waiting to tke us into the sever garden jim morrison song,

the doors , ladyes an yellomens from los angeles california

[Kurarayanson]

This was played in the ending of the memorial of the killed in Norway...

[jimamia77]

Not a piece to hear when u have the blues. Makes me think of snow covered stone mausoleums in winter. Sadness all the way except a possible ray of hope starting at 5:30. It then quickly returns to its dark chords and then begins its anger! It then quiets down and finally dies out on a dark minor chord expressing hopelessness to be continued. It's a musical journey representing all emotions experienced after a nasty tragic event with irreversible results such as paralysis and death!

[GerardosTube]

GRANDE! Sempre!

[thecitizenk1]

always reminds me of the holocoust

[VIRUSTM]

I feel i listen this song directly with my soul !

Ibi Jedi, IBI JEDI!

For you my son ! Razvan Ionut ( 11.09.1987 - 29.01.1988 ) Rest in peace !

[dieWassermusik]

@48whiteangel You can't dedicate someone else's work to your kid. I mean it's a touching thought and all, but you can't. I'm sorry.

[WhatsASubscriber]

@dieWassermusik shut up

[dieWassermusik]

@WhatsASubscriber You can't either. Sorry.

[jelibonur]

@48whiteangel Allah'ın rahmeti üzerinde olsun, cennetten sizleri görüyordur. çok duygulandım kardeşim:(

[veskovarbanov]

@48whiteangel I am so sorry to hear that you've lost your son.It's the hardest moment in one's life, but keep in your mind the thought that he is somewhere above watching on you and being happy. My deepest condolence !!!

[48whiteangel]

@veskovarbanov You are so kind ! Thank you ! GOD gave me a precious gift after this great lost ! I have a son - Bogdan and he is my sunshine !

[LOTSW2]

@48whiteangel Sa-ti TRAIASCA!!

[veskovarbanov]

@48whiteangel Oh that is so lovely. Bogdan is a tipical bulgarian name,if i am not mistaken...I am from Bulgaria...It's a populer name here...That comes from BOG...which means GOD...

[48whiteangel]

@veskovarbanov I know ! My son Bogdan is  my gift from GOD !

[jambar0201]

@48whiteangel rest in peace in eden

@48whiteangel

Rest in Peace..

[shrylock]

Albinoni did not compose this, Giazotto did. Doesn't stop it from being a masterpiece though.

[txemata1]

@shrylock Giazotto hizo una variacion o versión. Este adaggio lo compuso Albinioni mas de 100 años antes de que naciera Giazoto. Informate bien.

[shrylock]

@txemata1 Giazotto did not create a variation of it, he based the entire piece off of a tiny fragment of manuscript he supposedly discovered written by Albinoni. To date the manuscript fragment has not been found and the general consensus is that Giazotto composed the piece, whatever he may have used as inspiration. Try to research a bit yourself before calling people out on what you think is false knowledge.

[txemata1]

@shrylock En los libros, para las grandes orquestas, o para el mismo Von Karajan, esto es el Adggio en sol menor de Albinioni. Yo no soy nadie para decirlo, pero confío en los que sí saben.Informate tu mejor. Todo el mundo sabe que esto es de Albinioni, pero según tu, el mundo se equivoca. Pues bien, la tierra es plana, hay un libro que lo dice.

[shrylock]

@txemata1 Your sources are mistaken and a quick Google search will confirm this. The only parts of the piece written by Albinoni are that of the figured bass and two first violin fragments on a tiny piece of manuscript, given to Giazotto by the State Library of Dresden which he used as the basis of his work. In no way does this mean that the piece was composed by Albinoni. Do not try to be witty and insult my intelligence by drawing false parallels, it removes some civility from the debate.

[txemata1]

@shrylock Ah pues si estoy en un error, rectifíco y pido disculpas. Tambien pido disculpas si te has sentido ofendido, no era mi intención.Toda la vida pensando que era el Adggio en sol menor de Albinioni. Incluso leí que Albinioni lo compuso sumido en la tristeza tras haber perdido a toda su familia. Uno no se puede fiar siempre de sus fuentes. Te agradezco la correción, así no induciré a error a otras personas. Tendré que tirar el libro. I was wrong, sorry.Excuse me please.

[azah0009]

A quien no gusta este musica? Está tán bonita! Qué quieres más?

[sellerdrop]

Fantasy thank you !

[shanawan65]

It is the ecstasy of music. Immortal Albinoni, thank you maestro Giazotto for bringing the past alive.

[luigi66fazer]

Se me pone la piel de gallina,me fascina este ADAGIO.

Con obras como esta tiene sentido la existencia.

solo un privilegiado puede componer estas piezas, que belleza.

gracias por existir, MÚSICA.

[FrenchPorcelainDoll]

My grandfather died yesterday. I've never been really close to him, even he we lived in the same house... I was almost sure that I was ok with his death, but now I am listening to this song and I simply can't stop crying. It's beautiful, but it's so sad and touching... it just makes me think of every moment I can remember spending with him.

[nelsonreismonteiro]

@FrenchPorcelainDoll  I'm very sorry. =(

@FrenchPorcelainDoll A curse on you...now I'm crying! Very moving, Thanks
