=-> Quoting Bob Dunn to Martin Ridgley re: Renaissance:
 MR> ..Renaissance... the album is titled, _Turn of the Cards_ and was
 MR> released in 1974.
 BD> Trivia question: Cold is Being is one of my favorite songs.
 BD> What classical song is it's theme taken from?
   I assume you already know, but it's adapted from the Adagio in G minor
 by Tomasso Albinoni.
   FWIW, the original score to Albinoni's Adagio may not exist.  The piece
 we know today was arranged by a fellow named, Remo Giazotto.  He apparently 
 developed it from a fragment which was discovered in Dresden, Germay after 
 one of the Allied bombings of that city in World War II.
   There are other sections on that Renaissance album which are obviously
 borrowed from the classical repertoire.  Since you seem to be so well
 versed in this sort of thing , here's a trivia question for *you*:
   "Running Hard", one of my faves from _Turn of the Cards_ begins with a 
 lengthy piano introduction which is also taken from a classical piece 
 originally written for the organ.  Do you know what it is?
    Cheers,
             Martin
