I lived for a while on the island of Saint-Louis, Paris, about 50 years ago. It was when the price of one franc was just a little over 80 yen. After dinner, while I was wrapping up the day's work, I would always listen to Radio France or Antenne 2 (my memory is a little fuzzy). I remember that the music played at the end of the station's broadcast was Marcello's Oboe Concerto, Adagio in the second movement. Whenever this music came on, I would always go to bed...it was a habit. In the morning, I would wake up to the sound of the 6 o'clock bell of Notre Dame de Paris on the neighboring island of Cité, but this one didn't leave much of an impression on me. Strangely enough, every time I listen to this Adagio, for some reason I remember the night view of the black chimneys from the window of my apartment. I have forgotten everything else, though. So I decided to input the Adagio from the second movement of MARTOLLO's Oboe Concerto in D minor, which has left a nostalgic impression on me. It seems to be considered as one of the two major Adagios along with Albinoni's Adagio , which I onputted earlie
When Bach arranged this piece for harpsichord (BWV 974), the ornamentation is so wonderful that it seems to have transformed the original piece. There are many CDs available, and most of them use this ornamentation. In those days, however, it was common practice to use ornaments instead of the score. Here, I inputted the oboe according to Bach's ornamentation. However, it seems that the progression of harmony differs greatly depending on the score (arrangement).
Now, for the main oboe sound source, I decided to use the Oboe from Audio Modering's SWAM Double Reeds, a physical sound source. The SWAM wind instruments have come a long way compared to the solo strings, so I thought they were useful enough. As for the strings, I used LA SCORING STRINGS 3, a sampling sound source from Audiobro, which I have used before. It has become very easy to use since version 3 was released.
