Historia

Ottorino Respighi was an Italian violinist, composer and musicologist, best known for his trilogy of orchestral tone poems: Fountains of Rome (1916), Pines of Rome (1924), and Roman Festivals (1928). His musicological interest in 16th-, 17th- and 18th-century music led him to compose pieces based on the music of these periods. He also wrote several operas, the most famous being La fiamma.

Películas

Fantasía 2000
Music
Sesenta años después de que Walt Disney creara "Fantasía", se rueda "Fantasía 2000", que une la animación más espectacular con una música de ensueño. La obra se divide en ocho partes. Una de ellas es una nueva versión de "El aprendiz de Brujo", de P. Dukas, protagonizada por Mickey Mouse. Pero hay mucho más: desde las divertidas travesuras de unos flamencos a la moderna ciudad en armonioso movimiento, un derroche de imaginación con música de fondo.

Psychological and sociological portrait of Camillo Castiglioni, the king of inflation, who became one of Europe's richest men in the twenties through speculation and war profiteering.
