Re: Albinoni Concerto

There is more than one Albinoni concerto. Which one is it? Concerto in Bb (oboe) Concerto St. Mark (oboe)? He did write a Sonata for trumpet (which works just fine with a string quartet sans continuo. Generally piccolo is used. Albinoni wrote "nice" music, typically Italian with some wonderful, playful melodies. Fun to play, but not mind-blowingly deep.
