Respighi - Pines of Rome (Pini di Roma)
$129.95 - $585.00
Serge Koussevitzky asked whether Rachmaninoff would select a group of études-tableaux for Italian composer Ottorino Respighi to orchestrate. He agreed and selected five études from Op. 33 and Op. 39. Respighi rearranged the order of études, but was otherwise faithful to the composer's intent.
Respighi was no stranger to Russian music -- he was an orchestration student of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. He created brilliant and appropriate colors for all of the pieces.
