In this latest recording of works by Albinoni, Simon Standage directs Collegium Musicum 90 showcasing the rarely performed and recorded Op. 10 Concertos. As late as 1961, academics were unaware of Albinoni’s last set of concertos. All this changed when two small private collections were found to contain the print. Since then, the existence of Op.10 has been known to scholars, but awareness of it and curiosity about it has not really penetrated. Most of the Op.10 concertos have not been published in a modern edition, and the set has been recorded only twice before.

The dedicatee of Op. 10 was the Marquis of Castelar, Don Luca Fernando Patiño, who had come to Italy from Spain as a military commander. As a result, the Op.10 concertos are highly individual. If one looks at the melodic lines in isolation, they look full modern for the 1730s, but if one looks at the bass line they go right back to the time of Albinoni’s Op.2 and Op.5. Albinoni alludes to the dedicatee in the music itself: the first movement of Concerto 11 is a vivid evocation of flamenco style, with all its fierce percussiveness. Note writer Michael Talbot describes the concertos as ‘undoubtedly ‘odd’ in the fact that they are wildly different from what one expects from any composer working in the 1730s, but they are also beautiful in a way absolutely peculiar to their composer and in a way a logical conclusion of his art.’

Simon Standage performs regularly with Collegium Musicum 90 and other groups and is a very well respected performer in the early-music field.

Composer: Tomaso Albinoni
Conductor: Simon Standage
Orchestra/Ensemble: Collegium Musicum 90

Reviews: Tomaso Albinoni, the “Venetian Dilettante” (so-called because he was not a professional musician), was celebrated by his contemporaries for his 50 or so operas and theatrical works, but is best remembered now for five sets of concertos, including the first-ever oboe concertos. The op. 10 concertos, Albinoni’s last, were composed in the mid 1730s but “lost” until the 1960s, and are still relatively unfamiliar. Typically for Albinoni, all are scored for five parts ( a cinque, but without oboes), employ a fast-slow-fast, three-movement pattern, and—unlike the concertos of such popular contemporaries as Vivaldi or Tartini—rarely set a soloist apart from the ensemble. Such unvarying structural guidelines foster the perception of monotony, but Albinoni, like Vivaldi, was inventive enough to avoid that trap. Just one striking example is the 11th concerto, with its representations of the flamenco, an acknowledgment of the set’s Spanish patron, who underwrote its publication. Despite Albinoni’s inherent conservatism, evidence of evolving musical fashions are evident in his op. 10 collection, making it a proper culmination of his particular legacy.


Albinoni’s concertos have persuasive advocates in Simon Standage and Collegium Musicum 90, which he founded in 1990 (with Richard Hickox). Standage has led his ensemble in a number of Albinoni recordings for Chandos, including the complete oboe concertos with Anthony Robson. Their readings of these op. 10 concertos are enthusiastic, stylish, and thoroughly engrossing. If there’s a disappointment with this release, it’s that four of the concertos are absent. But that’s the consequence of the technology, not of the performers. Would that all could have been present and accounted for. Warmly recommended.
