Pines of Rome / Fountains of Rome / Feste Romane

Album by Ottorino Respighi & Orchestre symphonique de Montréal & Charles Dutoit

These works are a set of orchestral tone poems by Italian composer Ottorino Respighi, composed in the 1910s and 1920s. They exemplify Respighi's lush neo‑Romantic orchestral language, employing large forces, vivid tone‑painting and colourful orchestration that blend late‑Romantic harmony with impressionistic and folkloric elements, and they mark a key phase in his development as a composer of programme orchestral music in the early 20th century.
