I think the situation has been clear from the beginning: Rene Gazzotti
(if I recall the name correctly), a 20th-C Italian musicologist, discovered
a bass part by Albinoni and added a pseudo-Romantic tune to it, completely
out of style and nowhere close to a Baroque melody.  So what people
remember and love/hate is by Gazzotti.

>And by the same.....How much of Pachelbel's Canon are really by Pachelbel?

This one is genuine, but various modern arrangements exist.  The original
is for strings.
