About "Adagio in G Minor for Strings and Organ, "Albinoni's Adagio"" by David Parry
Albinoni's Adagio is a monument of Baroque sorrow. Parry's reading is stately and deliberate, the organ's pedal tones a heavy heartbeat. The music builds from a whisper to a cry, a grief that feels both ancient and immediate, impossible to shake.
