A nice piece, and very well played (by the way, who is the pianist?)

I loved this so much I ordered the sheet music -- sounds so easy, but quite difficult to play!

Thank you for posting this since I have was not familiar with Respighi's music at all. BEAUTIFUL!

Listening to this great man's music it is not hard to imagine how he influenced later composers, especially those working in film music. I am thinking, of course, of the great Dr. Miklos Rozsa, who composed the wonderful music fo "Ben Hur" and "King of Kings" amongst others. Close you eyes a little and Resphigi seems to be there, alive within the music. Thank you for posting this.

This music is so beautiful! Thank you for introducing me to it! I am searching into this man's music. I will listen to his famous Roman Trilogy soon. I am going on holiday to stay with my grandparents until Saturday, so I'll hear from you then!
