Tiësto & Giazotto - "Adagio for Athena"

Once more, two masters of Music, each one his time and genre.
This time, the video mix features two classic and well-known masterpieces in a great convergence. A classic melody that has been used in several movies and artistical manifestations around the world, and its contemporary trance version in the hands of one of the most important artists of electronic music of the XXI century.
Adagio in G Minor:
Music scholars around the world have discussed the real authorship of this piece. Commonly attributed to Tomaso Albonini, it was actually composed by the Italian musicologist Remo Giazotto in 1958. The origin of this piece traces back to WWII when Giazotto was studying the music and legacy of Tomaso Albinoni (1671-1751). In 1945, he gathered and recovered, according to him, valuable manuscripts and fragments of Albonini's unpublished works in the bombarded library of Dresden, Germany. These manuscripts and some of the bass and melodic portions inspired Giazotto to rework and compose the "Adagio in G Minor for Strings and Organ on Two Thematic Ideas and on a Figured Bass by Tomaso Albinoni".
Athena:
Using Giozzotto's composition and melodies from "Adagio in G Minor", Tijs Michiel Verwest (Born in Berda, the Netherlands in 1969) known as Tiësto, remixed and presented this masterpiece in a Trance version to the world in 2004, year in which he became the first Dj in history to perform in an opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. The games took place in Athens, Greece in 2004, and this might have inspired the track's title "Athena" which became part of his album "Parade of Athletes" (2004).
