What was commonly performed during Albinoni's life but is now relatively unknown?

  • His Operas

  • His Concertos

  • His Sonatas

  • His Sinfonias

Answer

Albinoni's operas, once widely celebrated during his lifetime, have faded into relative obscurity in modern times. While his instrumental music, particularly the Adagio in G minor, remains well-known, his operatic works have largely been forgotten. Despite composing over fifty operas, only a handful have survived intact, making it challenging to fully appreciate his contributions to this genre.
