Fascismo Redentor, indeed. All of which came to a bloody but appropriate end in April, 1945, near Dongo and in the Piazzale Loreto in Milan. The stirring tune and the original words, however, go back well before the Fascist period.
It's a rallying song for the Fascist movement to extol the glories of war. These propaganda songs were popular during the war. They were recorded by many popular Italian singers at the time. Sometimes they were "required" to sing them. The problem is that it also set back or in some cases ruined the careers of many of these singers because they sang them. Unfortunately, it was, and in some quarters still is, held against them. Probably not justified, but that's the way things are.
VIVA L'ITALIA! VIVA IL FASCISMO! VIVA IL DUCE!
