Favoloso!!!

[rbpenelope2008]

Alba o tramonto? Nascita o morte? Serenità o disperazione?

Forse solo contemplazione...e una solitudine da naufrago

[ElenaXVI]

I heard this in a movie but I can't remember in which one... somebody help?

[tre6nove]

@ElenaXVI Anonimo veneziano?  Venetian anonymous?

[ElenaXVI]

@tre6nove No actually I remembered it was in the Russian/Soviet cartoon "Conflict". You can look it up on yt if you want :)

[pushimoshi]

@ElenaXVI The House of Mirth maybe?

[jonzfriend]

For some decades now I have been listening to this on a steadily degrading cassette. It is wonderful to hear the fullness back again. Thank you for uploading this.

[petrovich1947krimea]

wspominam czesto obój i ten koncert,---to jest piekne

[thecador]

It is divine.

[antiseri]

il pezzo è SUBLIME, l'interpretazione è FANTASTICA: BRAVO!!

[prodipe23]

Too bad that the recording is not in the right key (Dm).Is a tone lower (Cm) which means that it´s sounding a bit different,but of course it is beautiful also.

[elgntlove3]

Makes me melt!



[sedendoemirando]

è in do minore inizia col do mib mib sol ....

[ltdex400guitarist]

iwas checking out rob marcello (neoclassical metal guitarist)

and the name sounded familiar so i looked up marcello and just happened to find one the the best sounding classical songs iv heard!

[ericerac1964]

merveilleux, fabuleux, extraordinaire, jubilatoire....

[dndanman78]

Another beautiful song Thank you I have not heard this before

[OrangeAni]

Could someone tell me where can I get music sheet?

[stockcar5472]

@OrangeAni It is available on imslp under Bach BWV 974 - it is the Adagio in Concerto III

the last chords reminds me of Samual Barber's adagio. Both masterpieces.

[lascc61]

No entiendo mucho de musica,pero hay algo confuso aqui. En la pelicula Anonimo Veneziano,el encargado de la grabacion dice: ANONIMO VENEZIANO,CONCIERTO EN DO MENOR,PARA OBOE Y CUERDA,SEGUNDO MOVIMIENTO,LARGO. Aqui dice: ADAGIO EN C MENOR, PORQUE? y creado por ALESSANDO MARCELLO. En la partitura que el actor lee en el piano de su casa,en la pelicula,dice : BENEDETTO MARCELLO. Se sabe que muchas de las composiciones se les atribuia a ALESSANDRO,cuando en realidad lo componia BENEDETTO.

[guasc0]

@lascc61

Hai ragione infatti è Do minore, non "C".

[Biancavitta]

Wonderful baroque music.

[aireschel1787]

I agree with you, at times melancholy music is precisely what we need most -- thank you for sharing this music of A. Marcello which has helped me on a very sad day.

[malcolmcolemann]

Luverly! If you're into this, then check out the first movement of Carl Dittersdorf's Sinfonia No.4 in F major (which is listed under the title: C.D.v. Dittersdorf - Sinfonia No.4 in F major 'The rescue of Andromeda...': I. Adagio non molto). And it's definitely one to listen to in the dead of night (And his requiem is pretty damn good too!). And on a slightly different note.....ahem.....check out Mozart's Symphony No.6 if you've never heard it before, and especially the second movement. Bliss!

[Leviwosc]

@malcolmcolemann: The rescue of Andromeda by C.D. v. Dittersdorf is in my opinion absolutely inferior to this magnificent piece by Marcello. It's the vibrato that I miss in Dittersdorf's composition.

[malcolmcolemann]

@Leviwosc Two words: Ear & Beholder! Everyone that I have shared it with thinks it is v beautiful. & as you may have noticed in the comments on the page, Meyerbeer - who has uploaded literally thousands of classical pieces on to Youtube - describes it thus: "The most wondelful adagio's i know, divine!". I would suggest that if a thousand people who had never heard it - who are into classical music (& even if they're not!) - listened to it, 98/99% of them would love it. As they would Marcello's

[Regina1489]

Красота картинок, дополняет красоту музыки. Восхитительный ролик, который берёт за душу. Брависсимо!

[BeatsbyMaidah]

Too wonderful for me to remain calm. As I listen, I feel the sins of my past bringing me to tears.

[boffns]

das hab ich mal zu einem Wettbewerb gespielt...luft von vorteil:)

[urmala78]

Божественно......

[cb77305]

The best recording ever is Pierre Pierlot on Erato - probably 40 years old. His freeform embellishments raise this recording to #1 IMHO.

[xSnoweyexp]

Nice !! ik vind hem op piano door glenn gould gespeeld ook nog altijd erg cool!! dankje voor het uploaden.

Alessandro Marcello - Adagio in C minor

FANTASTIC THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL SONG.

[1974kaplan]

wat een muziek ,dat brengt je naar ergens anders.prachtig,bedabkt voor de moeite.

[MsFlutey]

@Wobuzowatsj ... he is saying, that marcello brothers bought this adagio off Bach.. marcello didn't compose it.....

[smark911]

isn't this in D MINOR?!?

[QBoxit]

Gracias por compartir. Saludos cordiales.

[6313080]

Forget about Rock and all the others. THIS IS music

[voropator]

fantastic. magic!!!!!!!!!! no words, emotions only & tears

[paradoxicus]

@gomidecarlos.No admite el menor análisis pensar que los hermanos Marcello,pudieran comprar o encargar la partitura a JSB.

Claramente su estilo es otro.

Los hermanos Marcello,efectivamente,fueron ricos pero "dilettantes".

Tienen otras muchas composiciones.Visto así,pienso que el autor de éste bellísimo adagio,fuera Benedetto,por su forma de componer,en contra de la autoría atribuida a Alessandro.

Cabe pensar que fueran supervisados por Vivaldi,Corelli o el mísmo Geminiani.

[pedr0013]

@gomidecarlos bach used this piece to train his ornamentation skills

[ibk1980]

athough Bach wrote a version for harpsichord of this concert, it is still unclear and unproved if the Marcello brothers bought the piece from him. At that time, Bach had contact with the italian school and compositions of Vivaldi and others... I would not be surprised if this concerto is a work from Bach... it´s very refined and inspired... characteristic from the slow movements of hin concertos... ir really pretty...

[abulafia1604]

@Wobuzowatsj He says that A. and B. Marcello was two brothers, composers of the baroque age. They was very rich and they bought musics from other composers, and this adagio, that someone ascribes to Bach, too. Many people refer this music to Alessandro, others to Benedetto, but the majority attributes it to Bach that sold it to the brothers.

Sorry for my poor English!

[samantick]

grazie

[Zeca2009]

@Wobuzowatsj

Well, Portuguese is the 6th most spoken language (more than both French+Italian) in the world, but I will translate. "He basically said that Allessandro and Benedetto were brothers and baroque composers. They were really rich and supposedly bought many compositions. Some think this is composed by Alessandro, some think by Benedetto, but Bach probably wrote it and the brothers bought it from him"- That is what he said

[Leviwosc]

@Zeca2009: Thank you for your translation.

About languages: Chinese is without a doubt the biggest language on earth. Yet it's not the most widely learnt language. Chinese is pretty much useless on all continents except for Asia.

Portuguese is a big language because Brazil is a big country. But besides Portugal and Brazil there are hardly any countries were Portuguese is an official language. Portuguese isn't a lingua franca, like French, which is spoken in several countries.

[Zeca2009]

@Leviwosc

Yes, I agree with you that French is spoken in more countries (we have more native speakers though). But, Portuguese is the official language in 10 countries and is obligatory in 10 other countries. Don't sell us short :-) au revoir :-)

[signorinakitty]

e com'è dolce piangere su queste note...

[dgaranin]

Beautiful recording! Sorry it took too much time for me to approve it as a video response, I have overlooked the request..

[grigri86]

bien que je n'aime pas vraiment le son du hautbois, ce morceau m'a conquis. Il s'en dégage une mélancolie, une beauté extrême. J'adorais déja l'adagio d'albinoni mais je crois que celui-ci me plait encore plus...

[MrGunterguerrero]

@gomidecarlos Não acredito. Bach não se prestaria jamais a "barganhar" sua obra com dois venezianos nobres e ricos. O estilo pode se parecer mais a Albinoni. Aliás Bach transcreveu este Concerto para cravo (BWV 974). O restante é lenda.

[MusicOboeLove]

What tempo was this taken at?

[PatoPat58]

Semplicemente immortale. Meraviglioso!

[MrGunterguerrero]

Alessandro Marcello(1669-1747) Venetian, composed this " Adagio, Dal Concerto Per Oboe e Orchestra D'Archi in Do Minore ". Marcello, baroque musician was also poet and philosopher. Bach divulged it and made a transcription for harpsichord ( BWV 974 )...Italian director Enrico Maria Salerno's " The Anonymous Venetian " (1970) wonderful film included this music. One word : Sublime.

[oxur91]

alessandro marcello is one of the best italian compositor in baroque with vivaldi.

[AxleCarp]

I played this piece my senior year of high school. Absolutely brilliant piece. I still get the chills listening to it.

[KatonahTish]

great....except the last trill.

[dariocadoppi8]

i wish i could play it that good

[Clivejvaughan]

Gee - I thought I had some little idea about music, but I've never heard this, and a hundred thousand viewers tell me now far behind I am !

They're right, it's lovely.

[vitoparisi3]

Stattlich, sanft, fürsterlich, göttlich, sacht, höchstvorzüglich, paradiesankundigend, hirtstäblich, himmlisch, prinzhaft. Mit anderen auserwählten Worten: staufisch und edelschwäbisch!

[1965Buddy]

For we are the makers of music

and we are the dreamers of dreams

wandering by lonely sea breakers

and dwelling by desolate streams

[jorgebcn59]

Bellisimo, un prodijio del arte musical una composicion inolvidabe. es bellisima

[MissMinelava2]

A mi modo...siempre me gustarà esta melodia, aunque el milagro no se haya cumplido para mi .... pupilas rosaceas FOREVER!! tal vez algun dia en otra vida....

[xiiva08]

I LOVE IT!! :DDD

[nakedBison69]

part of what is so amazing about this piece is that it is not even written by a noted composer. yet even the most insignificant of Baroque composers, still produced such beautifully heavenly music like this piece

[45qwart]

круто !!!

[agentJekov]

excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[Achtelnote]

its d-minor not c.

[rene16rovers]

my ears tell me its c minor.

but there is a version in d minor too.

One of the brothers stole it from the other?!

[Achtelnote]

@rene16rovers yes you are right.

[PhilosophicalViking]

This is real music....Baroque is the most beautiful music ever created, in my humble opinion.

[nakedBison69]

other than Mozart, who was the greatest musical composer who ever lived, i agree with you

[MsFlutey]

@PhilosophicalViking here here.. loooooooooove Baroque, i think my flute teacher does too as he doesn't mind me continually playing it.. ahhaahhahaaa. and this one!! heaven!!!

[plozikou]

@PhilosophicalViking

This is entirely my opinion too. The most beautiful music that humans have ever imagined ...

[pydbl]

@PhilosophicalViking agreed!

[malcolmcolemann]

@PhilosophicalViking Are you familiar with the first movement of Dittersdorf's Sinfonia No.4. If not, please have a listen sometime and let us know what you think/feel about it. It's listed on Youtube under the title: C.D.v. Dittersdorf - Sinfonia No.4 in F major 'The rescue of Andromeda...': I. Adagio non molto Thanks.

[nakedBison69]

Not only do I agree with you 100%, but it is comforting to know that I am not the only one who thinks this way. I have many hundreds of Baroque musical CD's which I enjoy so much listening to on a fairly consistent basis

[chrisseher]

@PhilosophicalViking idem !!

[ydraki]

@PhilosophicalViking

in agreement with you. Too bad not many people are aware of this music at all.

[puskina73]

Complimenti per la scelta e proposta del brano.

Oltre all'originale sarebbefantastico fosse anche presente su Youtube la trascrizione di Bach nell'esecuzione di Gould!

SUPERLATIVA ma... introvabile su YT.

CONSIGLIATISSIMA!!!!

[Stemih40]

we are touched by an angel wing!

[thibautprincen]

Prachtig

[silolivas]

REALLY WONDERFUL AND INSPIRED.

[bunniesrule87]

awesome!

[haniagg225]

jakież to piękne...

[vitoparisi3]

Questa è sinfonia

[luisbdo65]

Algunos la atribuyen a Alessando, otros a Benedetto, incluso a Bach...pero es que una pieza tan hermosa cualquier compositor quisiera atribuirsela.

[Leviwosc]

Hai ragione è una composizione meravigliosa.

[batcolo]

It's by Alessandro Marcello and previously was supposed to be by his brtoher Benedetto, Bach made a transcription for harpsichord

[cb77305]

This sounds like the Pierre Pierlot recoding on Erato - the best of them all. I'd love to have this on a CD.

[Paul7600]

stupendo e struggente pezzo, parte della colonna sonora del film "Anonimo veneziano"...

[SREGAN7]

BEAUTIFULLY DONE. BRAVO

[TRIGIBALDO77]

Struggente!

[ArmandoHerreram]

Gracias, no sabes como te lo agradezco bbeniamini

[danielvartan]

[requiemaeturnum]

I'm learning an organ concerto by Bach that has this same adagio movement. Its very beautiful.

[1965Buddy]

Wonderful presentation.

[josgvis]

@costyca1985 What I tried to say in Dutch is, that this song is so beautiful, it brings you into a condition of calmness and beauty, very welcome in our hectic lives.

[hectorianus]

¡Por favor, quiero más¡

[fideliofeb]

the most beautiful music to listen in nature!!

[htshoward]

Oh God this is so painfully beautiful....love the strict rhythm and haunting melody...It was also used as the theme in the movie The House of Mirth

[malcolmcolemann]

@htshoward Please come and take part in our 'survey' - which involves listening to a piece of music you are probably unfamiliar with - and let us know what you think/feel about it. See relevant comments on page. Cheers.

[htshoward]

@malcolmcolemann Sure, but I don't see the survey?  I subscribed to your page, but I don't see the survey. Thanks.

Solo decir gracias......por algo tan bello. Una musica que agita los sentimientos...preciosa.

[SteveandGaynor]

[terrestial63]

Thanks!!!!!!!

[mkd1964]

I can assure you that the composer is *Alessandro* Marcello, not Benedetto.

[step87byme]

musica e immagini mozzafiato!bellissime!

però questa è di alessandro marcello e non di benedetto marcello!

[Leviwosc]

Penso che siate confuso. Questa composizione viene da un cd e là scritto sulla cd che questa composizione è stata composta da Benedetto Marcello.

Mi scusi per mio Italiano poveri.

I think you are confused. This composition comes from a cd and there is written upon the cd case that this composition has been composed by Benedetto Marcello.

I'm sorry for my poor Italian.

[Singolar]

Scusami...puoi darmi i titoli delle tracce perchè non riesco a scaricarlo in internet

[fosco85]

Step87byme! bravo! hai ragione! Studi filologici recenti hanno messo in luce il vero autore è Alessandro, anche se per secoli è stato attribuito al più noto fratello Benedetto!

[aelfricbetera]

a slow movement of true musical art....

[axisgirl]

heavenly music!

The main theme is so sweet and sound so modern!

adorable slide too!

[decimaquinta69]

Eccellente

[aliola100]

Maravilloso, no puedo evitar emocionarme cuando lo oigo.......ese oboe me roba el corazón

[69Toad96]

What a perfect set of pictures for this piece of amazing music...

[Wobuzowatsj]

Thank you very much, it took me some time to collect the right pictures. I'm glad you appreciate it.

[5emme8]
