Sarajevo 1992 - During the 1425-day siege of the city of Sarajevo, which began on April 5, 1992 and officially ended on February 29, 1996, Vedran Smailović, first cellist of the Sarajevo Philharmonic, played for 22 days in various parts of the city to the backdrop of incessant bombing, performing Albinoni's “Adagio in G minor”, in memory of the breadline massacre in which twenty-two civilians died when they were hit by a mortar strike on May 27 of the same year. In the photograph Vedran Smailović is playing the Adagio on the train tracks, surrounded by trains wrecked by the explosions.
Interesting facts about the score
Tommaso Albinoni's incomplete score was found by the Allies during the Second World War in the bombed-out Sächsische Landesbibliothek (National Saxon Library) in Dresden, in which many unique musical manuscripts were kept, including almost all of Albinoni's compositions. In 1958 the musician Remo Gianzotto reconstructed the score from the fragments found.
Only in 1998 when the Italian musician died, it was revealed that the score was never found in Dresden and was never written by Tommaso Albinoni, it had been a deception and the score had in fact been written by Gianzotto who is today credited with the work.
