Pines of Rome (Pini di Roma) is a four-movement symphonic poem for orchestra completed in 1924 by the Italian composer Ottorino Respighi. The piece, which depicts pine trees in four locations in Rome at different times of the day, is the second of Respighi’s trilogy of tone poems based on the city, along with Fountains of Rome (1917) and Roman Festivals (1928). It premiered on December, 14 1924 at the Augusteo Theatre in Rome with Bernardino Molinari conducting the Augusteo Orchestra, now known as the Orchestra dell’ Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia. This new edition by Tom Myron features completely reengraved score and parts, clarinets in both A and Bb, C and Bb trumpets, and alternate transpositions for the buccina.
