No contemporary Italian was as successful an instrumental composer in the concert hall in the period after the First World War as Ottorino Respighi with his four-movement symphonic poems 'Fountains of Rome' (1917), 'Pines of Rome' (1924) and 'Feste Romane' (1929). In these works, programme music experienced a magnificent revival. Particularly noteworthy is Respighi's art of instrumentation, with which he rivaled orchestral composers such as Richard Strauss and Maurice Ravel. He made use of a musical language distilled from many sources, a kind of 'Euro-impressionism' that did not exclude modernist influences.
