Although very different in character and emotional impact the 4 works share the Neo-classical style, the principles of baroque and classical forms and grammar, infused with 20-th century elements like polyrhythms, atonality and folkloristic influences. ? The Italian elite ensemble I Solisti Aquilani play with great imagination and instrumental freedom, while maintaining a strong and homogeneous ensemble discipline. ? Contains extensive notes in Italian and English.
