''Adagio in G minor'' was actually composed by Remo Giazotto based on Albinoni's ''Sonata in G minor''. A fragment of the ''Sonata'' was found admist the ruins of the Saxon State Library, Dresden, bombed by the Allies in World War II.<ref>

desc=Background info on piece | date=Accessed March 30 2008 | pub=Wikipedia | url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adagio_in_G_minor | dom=wikipedia.org | type=ext
}}</ref>
While the piece was not actually written by Albinoni, it is commonly attributed to him.


{{Riffs and jams/Adagio sostenuto}}
It was played as a short jam before [[Time Is Running Out (song)|Time Is Running Out]] on the earlier half of the 2006 tour. This arrangement featured Bellamy's Kaoss Pad, with Wolstenholme playing single notes on bass, and no percussion.


{{Riffs and jams/L'Arena}}
This made its return when Matt got his doubleneck Manson guitar. Currently he plays this as in the intro to Resistance with the top neck. This can be seen in the footage of [[Resistance (song)|Resistance]] at Glastonbury 2010.


{{Riffs and jams/Asturias}}
The piece is transposed to A minor, the key of Resistance, for live performances.

<flashmp3>http://www.musewiki.org/images/Muse_-_Adagio_Sostenuto_(Sergei_Rachmaninov).mp3|rightbg=0xDDEEFF|leftbg=0xDDEEFF|bg=0xFFFFFF</flashmp3><br/>


{{Riffs and jams/Bombtrack}}
A short section of the second movement of Rachmaninov's piano concert № 2. The piano outro in [[Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever) (song)|"Neutron Star Collision"]] sounds very similar to the piano that is played beginning at :25 when the riff gets louder.
<br>
<br>
<b>EDIT:</b> Adagio Sostenuto means 'Sustained & At Ease' and is the tempo and name of many classical pieces, not just Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 2. The piece played at the Seattle gig is indeed the piece played at the end of Neutron Star Collision, but is not taken from Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 2. It is only similar in it's tempo and pace. The piece is pretty much written by Matthew Bellamy. (Not sure how to edit this into the boxes above)

Revision as of 06:53, 30 October 2012

These may be included within set-lists by using various templates, which are listed here.

Adagio for Strings Snippet

Riff or jam
Name Adagio for Strings Snippet
Artist Samuel Barber
Writer/composer Samuel Barber
Appearance 9th April 2011

<flashmp3>http://www.musewiki.org/images/Adagio for Strings Snippet1.mp3|rightbg=0xDDEEFF|leftbg=0xDDEEFF|bg=0xFFFFFF</flashmp3>

Adagio in G minor

Riff or jam
Name Adagio in G minor
Artist Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni
Writer/composer Remo Giazotto
Appearance 2006, 2010

<flashmp3>http://musewiki.org/images/Adagio_In_G_Minor.mp3%7Crightbg=0xDDEEFF%7Cleftbg=0xDDEEFF%7Cbg=0xFFFFFF</flashmp3>
Adagio in G minor was actually composed by Remo Giazotto based on Albinoni's Sonata in G minor. A fragment of the Sonata was found admist the ruins of the Saxon State Library, Dresden, bombed by the Allies in World War II.[1] While the piece was not actually written by Albinoni, it is commonly attributed to him.

It was played as a short jam before Time Is Running Out on the earlier half of the 2006 tour. This arrangement featured Bellamy's Kaoss Pad, with Wolstenholme playing single notes on bass, and no percussion.

This made its return when Matt got his doubleneck Manson guitar. Currently he plays this as in the intro to Resistance with the top neck. This can be seen in the footage of Resistance at Glastonbury 2010.

The piece is transposed to A minor, the key of Resistance, for live performances.

Adagio sostenuto

Riff or jam
Name Adagio Sostenuto
Artist Sergei Rachmaninov (?)
Writer/composer Sergei Rachmaninov (?)
Appearance 22nd November 2003, 2nd April 2010

<flashmp3>http://www.musewiki.org/images/Muse_-_Adagio_Sostenuto_(Sergei_Rachmaninov).mp3%7Crightbg=0xDDEEFF%7Cleftbg=0xDDEEFF%7Cbg=0xFFFFFF</flashmp3>

A short section of the second movement of Rachmaninov's piano concert № 2. The piano outro in "Neutron Star Collision" sounds very similar to the piano that is played beginning at :25 when the riff gets louder.

EDIT: Adagio Sostenuto means 'Sustained & At Ease' and is the tempo and name of many classical pieces, not just Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 2. The piece played at the Seattle gig is indeed the piece played at the end of Neutron Star Collision, but is not taken from Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 2. It is only similar in it's tempo and pace. The piece is pretty much written by Matthew Bellamy. (Not sure how to edit this into the boxes above)
