This ATMA all-Respighi recording by the Orchestre symphonique de Laval is its first with current artistic director and principal conductor Alain Trudel. Canadian star soprano Isabel Bayrakdarian joins the orchestra for the lyric poem Il tramonto (The Sunset). Respighi found inspiration for his Botticelli Triptych in three celebrated Sandro Botticelli canvases. The Birds pay homage to the Baroque-era composers fancy for musically illustrating various aspects of life birdsongs, in this case, while Ancient Airs and Dances was inspired by the music of four Renaissance composers.

This discographic work dedicated to the works for flute and orchestra by Ottorino Respighi - a leading exponent of the «Generation of the Eighties» and a very refined composer, gifted with an excellent skill in the use of instrumental timbres - includes the world premiere recording of two works for flute and strings that came back to light after a long oblivion (and now published by Roberto Fabbriciani for the editors Suvini Zerboni).

This is Vivaldi for the 21st century. At its heart, the album is a conversation between past and present, between classical composition and new discoveries, between composers over time spans. Danish composer Karl Aage Rasmussen (b. 1947) has always been keen on exploring our experience of time and movement. Building bridges between cultures and traditions, he here sheds new light on original compositions by Vivaldi and Respighi, written during his period as composer-in-residence for Danish National Baroque Orchestra Concerto Copenhagen. Karl Aage Rasmussen graduated from the Aarhus Academy of Music in 1971, where he was appointed Professor in Composition in 1988. Many of his works use pre-existing material woven into a dense musical montage. Words like ‘de-composing’ and ‘re-composing’ seem fit, and in later years, this interest has resulted in the arrangement and completion of music by Schumann and Schubert. Rasmussen was awarded the Carl Nielsen Prize in 1991 and the Wilhelm Hansen Composer Prize in 1997.

Though not strictly born in the 1880s (1879), Respighi belonged to a group of composers known as the "generazione dell’ottanta" (the 80s generation), who strived to assert, as they saw it, a renewed musical expression of authentically Italian musical culture. It was a conservative stance in terms of both musical approach and nationalism, but it resulted in Respighi and colleagues recovering unjustly neglected treasures from their Italian heritage. Respighi’s first international success, an arrangement of Monteverdi’s Lamento d’Arianna, may be seen as the natural forerunner to the four suites of arrangements and transcriptions on this album.

This discographic work dedicated to the works for flute and orchestra by Ottorino Respighi - a leading exponent of the «Generation of the Eighties» and a very refined composer, gifted with an excellent skill in the use of instrumental timbres - includes the world premiere recording of two works for flute and strings that came back to light after a long oblivion (and now published by Roberto Fabbriciani for the editors Suvini Zerboni). Fabbriciani can also be considered the first interpreter ever, given that there is no evidence of performances in the period in which they were composed. The 'Suite' and the diptych 'Melodia' and 'Valse caressante' are in fact works dating back to the composer's first prolific period, remaining until now manuscripts in custody of the Museum of Music in Bologna and the Fondazione Cini in Venice. The Serenade for small orchestra and the suite 'Gli Uccelli' complete the production, expanding the vision of Respighi's compositions to the writing in his full maturity.

This 7 collection includes recordings made by Brazilian-born conductor John Neschling of the orchestral works of Ottorino Respighi, alongside Puccini the best-known Italian composer of the first half of the twentieth century. Widely praised by the press, including BBC Music Magazine, which described them as ‘the finest-ever survey of the composer’s orchestral output undertaken by a single conductor’, these recordings reveal Respighi’s extraordinary range. His transcriptions of works from the baroque period bear witness to his great musical refinement and are an example of the way in which people dared to adapt to current tastes at the beginning of the 20th century.

Quando lo scrittore è malinconico racconta storie di uccelli: «Ogni primavera, gli uccelli migratori percorrono immense distanze volando verso Nord. E ogni autunno, tornando al Sud, volano lungo lo stesso percorso. È così da milioni di anni. Per gli uccelli la migrazione è una condizione di vita». Alma lo ascolta nuda, sdraiata sul letto dello studio dove si incontrano quasi ogni giorno. La storia che lo scrittore ama di più è quella dei cuvivíes , che alla fine dell'estate volano per migliaia di chilometri dall'Alaska alle pampas argentine. Ma è una storia maledetta: quando gli uccelli arrivano sulla laguna andina di Ozogoche si gettano in picchiata nelle acque gelide dei laghi e muoiono all'istante. Gli scienziati non sono ancora riusciti a capire il perché, ma lo scrittore ha una sua spiegazione: «È un suicidio di massa, Alma, i cuvivíes non torneranno mai nelle pampas..

Paths, encounters, surprises, joys, sorrows, gratitude and an infinite space for research have been the components which led me to express in the present recording the feelings this music conveys to me. Europe, Buenos Aires and La Pampa it is a tribute to Astor Piazzolla by a European composer. The music from Buenos Aires and La Pampa harmonize in this record to express the soul of music. As Atahualpa Yupanqui said, a journey is made of endless arrivals. Discovering each of these pieces has given me an enormous motivation to learn and follow new paths, like a true channel telling a musical story. It is as if it were a very long trail. When you walk through it from a point to another to know and explore it, you find rest, you long to walk again to reach a new resting point and to start again.

With the present album, the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège and John Neschling bring us the sixth and last instalment in a series that has been called ‘the finest-ever survey of the composer’s orchestral output undertaken by a single conductor’ (BBC Music Magazine).The immense popularity of the Roman Trilogy has had the effect of obscuring many parts of Respighi’s oeuvre, including arrangements of pieces from the Renaissance and Baroque periods. These arrangements, a genuine declaration of love for this music, were less an attempt at musicological reconstruction than ‘free transcriptions for orchestra’ as the composer described them.
