Marcello was born in Venice on 24th August 1669. His brother was Benedetto Marcello, was also a composer. 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. One of his concertos, 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 on 19th June 1747.

This performance deserves over a billion views.. Its so well done, a wonderful orchestra and a marvelous oboist... ♥️
All hats off to the conductor for keeping the tempo slow enough to actually enjoy the richness of the oboe.. This group is fantastic..

Until I heard this beautiful music, I had no idea that the Oboe was such a "sad", emotional sounding instrument, like the Violin or the Cello. Adagio especially pulls on your heart strings.
