Ottorino Respighi arranged and edited by Kenneth Atkins Catalogue number: 006CC031223A
Originally written for piano duet by one of the leading Italian composers of the early 20th century — most famous for his three lavishly-orchestrated tone poems, Fountains of Rome, Pines of Rome, and Roman Festivals — these six little pieces are arranged here for string orchestra.
A charming, five-movement work for string orchestra by the Norwegian composer Ole Olsen, written in 1898 and first performed in Oslo in 1899. The movements are well-crafted and full of Norwegian folk influences, with moods ranging from serene to playful to dark and brooding to humorous and lively.
