In Reply to: Now for some REAL music: a new recording of Respighi's Roman Trilogy posted by Chris from Lafayette on August 21, 2016 at 13:00:26:
People can say what they want about the music but the orchestration is truly a marvel, and fun! The writing for piano, celeste and harp in the 3rd movt of Pines is exquisite: was truly a bucket list experience to be bathed in such pentatonic bliss.
