  • Description

    A new issue in the attractive and innovative series "Italian Romantics", featuring Italian composers from the turn of the 19/20th century in instrumental music. Francesco Cilea (1866-1950) is best known for his operas, particularly "Adriana Lecouvreur." However, his contributions to instrumental music are equally valuable. Though less renowned than his operatic output, Cilea's instrumental works exhibit a melodic richness and emotional depth characteristic of the Romantic era. The orchestral works show his mastery of lyrical themes and dramatic expression. His works are imbued with a sense of Italianate warmth and passion, reflecting the composer's deep connection to his native land. This collection presents orchestral, and concertante works, a cello sonata and piano trio, and the complete piano music. Artists include I Virtuosi della Scala (Filippo Arlia, conductor), Enrico Bronzi (cello) and Pier Paolo Vincenzi (piano).
