This album presents a selection of works for voice and orchestra. Respighi first gained recognition for his orchestration of Lamento d'Arianna, the only extant music from Monteverdi's lost second opera. The berceuse is a touching, short lullaby for strings composed in 1902, while the Wagnerian Il tramento and Arethusa, a precursor to the Fountains of Rome, are both based on the poetry of Shelley.
