.....discrete multi-positional Impulse Responses.....
I got this piece done on a single DAW PC, with 4 gigs of RAM ("3 Giga switch" option enabled); none of the tracks were bounced into audio, and it was all sequenced in real-time.
Does anyone actually remember who wrote "Albinoni's Adagio"? I've forgotten.:
DG
Remo Giazotto composed Albinoni's adagio in sol minore, in 1958 I think
No, the famous Albinoni Adagio was actually composed in fragments by Albinoni, and then expanded into an entire piece by Giazotto in the 1940s. There were melodic sections and a figured bass, which Giazotto expanded into a complete Adagio in the style typical of Albinoni's Concerto/Sonata adagio movements. It is extremely well-written for strings by Giazotto, who also added the organ because it seemed approriate for the melancholy mood of the music..
I know Amit as customer of my IR libs - so after listening to his great piece I hoped he would help me to prove that you do not need "acoustical" IRs per se. But alas :P he used Audioease IRs for this piece, hehe ;-)
Peter, stubborn as always ;-)
PS: tomorrow I will receive my Appasionata strings! I can't wait!
L'Adagio in sol minore was first released in 1958 by Ricordi Milano, the original titel was:
remo giazotto
adagio in sol minore per archi e organo
su due spunti tematici e su un basso numerato
di tomaso albinoni
It is a by copyright protected composition by musicologist Remo Giazotto. In the foreword it says that it is a Albinoni Triosonate in sol-minore without opus number. In 1945 Giazotto published the Albinoni index. Giazotto claimed that he received the original fragments from the Landesbibliothek Dresden, and that this fragments consisted of two handwritten fragments, a basso continuo and a 1st violin, all together six measures.
After his composition became a huge success, Prof. Giazotto was unable to show the fragments. The Adagio is his invention from A to Z.
The Landesbibliothek Dresden stated that this to Albinoni attributed handwritten fragments do not exist, and was never part of the collection in Dresden. The chief of the Sächsischen Landesbibliothek said that the work is a blatant falsification, and added that he is surprised that after the immense profit not more musicologist counterfeit music. For me as composer it is obvious that the work is of 20th century origin. The bricolage on the virtual tinkered Adagio is total needless, quasi an ugly indignity.

"The bricolage on the virtual tinkered Adagio is total needless, quasi an ugly indignity." - Angelo Clematide
What in God's name does this mean? Can't you just say something straight?
If you are sayng that the Giazotto composition is bad, you are wrong. Because it is a great piece of scoring for strings that is admired and played regularly by people all over the world. If you don't like it, that is your problem, but it is not a universal aesthetic principle. It is just your own lack of perception.
Also, I am going by what was stated on preface to the score I used for the performance. I guess you know more than the publisher of the music.
I already thought Angelo was a bit over-the-top with his anger and (justified) passionate reaction, but the remark about the "virtual" rendering and how it is presented is IMHO nothing more than a sheer insult at several people involved.
Angelo, che GiaCazzo...
Of course is the Adagio by Remo Giazotto a very nice composition.
