Nino Rota is best known for his music for film, but he spent a large part of his life composing 'classical' music. The works collected in this album deserve a special attention for their blend between tradition and the avant-garde; at the same time Rota's style is always recognisable, and highlights include two pieces from his celebrated film scores.

The release is enhanced by numerous documents and images in the booklet, courtesy of Silvia Rota Balchaert.
