A younger contemporary of Antonio Vivaldi, Marcello held concerts at his hometown of Venice. He composed and published several sets of concertos, including six concertos under the title of La Cetra (The Lyre), as well as cantatas, arias, canzonets, and violin sonatas. Marcello often composed under the pseudonym Eterio Stinfalico, his name as a member of the celebrated Arcadian Academy (Pontificia Accademia degli Arcadi).
Although his works are infrequently performed today, Marcello is regarded as a very competent composer. His La Cetra concertos are "unusual for their wind solo parts, concision and use of counterpoint within a broadly Vivaldian style," according to Grove, "placing them as a last outpost of the classic Venetian Baroque concerto."
A concerto Marcello wrote in D minor for oboe, strings and basso continuo is perhaps his best-known work. Its worth was attested to by Johann Sebastian Bach who transcribed it for harpsichord (BWV 974).
He died in Padua in 1747.
Alessandro's brother was Benedetto Marcello, also a composer.

@papakarlo007 По несчастью или к счастью,
Истина проста:
Никогда не возвращайся
В прежние места.
Даже если пепелище
Выглядит вполне,
Не найти того, что ищем,
Ни тебе, ни мне.
Путешествие в обратно
Я бы запретил,
Я прошу тебя, как брата,
Душу не мути.
А не то рвану по следу —
Кто меня вернет? —
И на валенках уеду
В сорок пятый год.

Музыка написанная на небесах , ангелы автору её напели , он лишь записал ноты , слушаю её и слезы сами текут . Может это и сентиментально , просто всегда трогает за душу !

Cada vez que oigo este concierto me produce un cumulo de emociones que se resisten a ser descritas por medio de la palabra. Es la Belleza en estado más puro. Gracias.
CUENTO DE LAS ANIMAS
Es lo mismo que siento yo, no hay palabras para describir la sensación que produce el solo escucharlo, es como oler el más bello perfume y no saber interpretar si el aroma es dulce o cítrico. Me fascina esta música, la interpretación fue magnífica... Un verdadero adagio.
FRANCISCO TRENTINI
Este concerto de A Marcello é lindo por inteiro. Mas seu adágio tem algo que mexe no mais profundo do interior de cada um de nós e nos dá sensações inexplicáveis. Magia pura!
