During the 1990s, Collegium Musicum 90 and Simon Standage released several volumes of Albinoni concertos, which proved popular with critics and public alike. The concertos were released as discs of single oboe concertos, double oboe concertos, and string concertos. In this re-issue on the Chaconne label, the concertos are presented in opus number order, showing the contrasting colours and tonalities of the concertos as they originally appeared.  
 
Dating back to the second decade of the eighteenth century, Albinoni’s twenty-four Concerti a cinque, Opp. 7 and 9  – eight for a single oboe, eight for two oboes, and eight for strings alone – were the earliest such works by an Italian composer to be published. Here the oboe functions, in its relationship with the strings, almost like a singer. The fact that the composer entitled these works ‘Concerti con oboe’ (with oboe), not ‘per oboe’ (for oboe), signifies that the strings (and in particular the first violin) play a role nearly as important as the wind instrument. An interesting contrast between the opus numbers can be found within the double oboe concerto form, with those belonging to Op. 7 boasting an almost Vivaldian vigour and much variety in texture, while the later works are consistently larger in scale, and more regular in form. Among string concertos, Op. 9 No. 7 is the most elaborate concerto for solo violin by Albinoni, and Op. 9 No. 10 the last example of its type in the composer’s œuvre. 
 
Founded by Simon Standage and the late Richard Hickox, Collegium Musicum 90 has a well-established reputation for its performances of baroque and classical music using period instruments, its repertoire ranging from chamber pieces to large-scale works for choir and orchestra. Under its exclusive contract with Chandos Records, Collegium Musicum 90 has made more than sixty critically acclaimed CDs. The ensemble is joined here by the two oboe soloists Catherine Latham and Anthony Robson. Internationally recognised as a leader in the field of performance on historical oboes, Robson is Principal with both Collegium Musicum 90 and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment. 
 

ALBINONI: THE COLLECTED CONCERTOS FOR OBOES AND STRINGS; ROBSON / LATHAM / COLLEGIUM MUSICUM 90 / STANDAGE

During the 1990s, Collegium Musicum 90 and Simon Standage released several volumes of Albinoni Concertos, which proved popular with critics and public alike. They were released as discs that grouped single oboe concertos separately from double oboe concertos and string concertos. In this box set on Chaconne the concertos are re-issued in opus number order, showing the contrasting colours and tonalities of the concertos as they originally appeared. Dating back to the second decade of the eighteenth century, Albinoni’s 24 Concerti a cinque, Op. 7 and Op. 9 were the earliest such published works by an Italian composer to feature the oboe as solo instrument. Here, in its relationship with the strings, it functions almost like a singer. Interestingly, the composer calls these works ‘Concerti con oboe’ (with oboe) and not ‘per oboe’ (for oboe), which signifies that the strings play a role nearly as important. Collegium Musicum 90 is conducted by Simon Standage and the oboe soloists are Anthony Robson and Catherine Latham. BBC Music commented on CHAN 0602, one of the original issues: ‘The performances are excellent, the oboists fluent and assured, the strings deft and lively.’ The set sells at three discs for the price of two.
