Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni was an Italian Baroque composer. His output includes operas, concertos, sonatas for one to six instruments, sinfonias, and solo cantatas. While famous in his day as an opera composer, he is known today for his instrumental music, especially his concertos. His instrumental music attracted great attention from Johann Sebastian Bach, who wrote at least two fugues on Albinoni's themes (Fugue in A major on a theme by Tomaso Albinoni, BWV 950, and Fugue in B minor on a theme by Tomaso Albinoni, BWV 951) and frequently used his basses for harmonic exercises for his pupils. Part of Albinoni's work was lost in World War II with the destruction of the Dresden State Library. As a result, little is known of his life and music after the mid-1720s.

Sehr groß! Sitze auf dem balcony bei 6⁰ C, etwas Auchentoshan im Glas, ein Raubvogel flattert vorbei, helle Sonne - und dann diese geniale Musik. Ob Ian Anderson die kannte? Oder kannten die Ian Anderson? Fühl mich glücklich.
