Leveranstid: Skickas vanligtvis inom 2-5 dagar
The only edition of the orchestral works by Respighi, now available in a 8CD set!Respighi is one of the foremost Italian composers of the first half of the 20th century. His fame rests on his Roman Trilogy, the scenic depiction of the Italian capital, its festivals, its pines and its fountains. His other works however are equally remarkable, and show an symphonist pur sang, with a rich and innovative orchestration and feeling for colour and atmosphere, inspired by the long musical heritage of his country (influences of Gregorian Chant, renaissance songs and dances, Rossini's musical pranks).Excellent performances by the Orchestra Sinfonica di Roma, conducted by Francesco la Vecchia, who did inestimable work recording neglected Italian symphonists like Dallapiccola, Malipiero and Ghedini. "conducted with obvious affection, the playing has engaging spirit and grace" (Gramophone). A real bargain at budget price!
