PFM were never a group prone to stand still, or repeat themselves from one project to another. Their second international album release, The World Became the World, was a case in point – rather than continuing in the same precise direction as its predecessor, Photos of Ghosts (1973), it presented a serious challenge to their existing fans even as it pushed the envelope of their sound.

Unique in the history of Italian progressive music, New Trolls were leaders and were for a time the top band in Italy. In 1973, New Trolls split into two camps, the hard-rocking IBIS and the symphonic-oriented New Trolls Atonic System.

This event took place in august 2007 in one of the most beautiful square in Italy, Piazza Unità d'Italia in Triste and the band line up is here represented by founding members Vittorio De Scalzi and Nico Di Palo along with Andrea Maddalone and Mauro Sposito on guitars, Francesco Bellia on bass and Alfio Vitanza on drums. The supporting orchestra is the amazing orchestra San Marco directed by Stefano Cabrera…
