Product Description
Ottorino Respighi, an eminent Italian composer, teacher, director, and musician, was born in Bologna July 9, 1879 and died April 18, 1936. Respighi's style of composition is a highly sucessful blend of songful melodies with full and rich harmonies; he was one of the best masters of modern Italian music. His power of evocation of the Italian scene and his ability to sustain interest without prolixity is incontestable. His many works include operas, ballets, choral works, orchestral works, and chamber works. Notturno, which he composed in 1905, came from a set of six solo piano pieces, Notturno being #3. This arrangement, for flute and harp, was arranged from his piano solo of Notturno, which shows signs of Impressionism.
