Added by magataganm, 11 Jun 2013 Giovanni Gabrieli was born in Venice in or about 1557. He studied With his uncle, Andrea Gabrieli, who was considered to be a master of the Venetian school. More than any of the Venetians who had preceded him, Giovanni Gabrieli devised an instrumental style as opposed to a vocal one. He had the ability to handle instruments with such mastery and variety of means that the history book is sometimes inclined to describe him as the "father of orchestratlon. Although originally written for Chorus (SSAATTBB), I created this arrangement for a Double Woodwind Quartet (Flutes (2), Oboes (2), Bb Clarinets (2) & Bassoons (2)). |
