# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni was born on 8 June 1671 in Italy and built a career through the Baroque era writing operas, concertos, sonatas, sinfonias, and solo cantatas. In his own time he was celebrated as an opera composer, drawing audiences across Italy. His instrumental works — especially the concertos — filled out a prolific output spanning one to six instruments. He died on 17 January 1751, his operas largely forgotten. What survived him by reputation was ironic: the "Adagio in G minor" that carries his name was largely penned by Remo Giazotto, a 20th-century musicologist cataloguing Albinoni's works, who either reconstructed or invented the piece and attributed it to the composer he studied.
