We've done it. It isn't an organ concerto. The Italian guy who wrote it wrote an obbligato organ continuo part. It isn't a violin concerto, tho' there may be some solo violin passages all right. I don't even think it's a concerto. I seem to recall that it's a single movement titled Adagio. And no, it isn't by Albinoni. It's based on, but not even a reconstruction from, a couple of fragments found in a bombed out library.
