condition (record/cover): EX- (minimal surface noise) / VG+ (small tag on front + ring wear) Gatefold sleeve.  Italian post-war chamber music at its finest. Marcello Panni conducts the Solisti di Teatromusica, the ensemble he founded in 1971, in essential works by four masters of Italian modernism. Recorded Rome, March 1972. Collana Edizioni Suvini Zerboni.

Franco Donatoni's Souvenir (Kammersymphonie, Op.18) showcases his serial period before the compositional crisis of the mid-1960s. Camillo Togni's Aubade Par Sei represents the rigorous twelve-tone approach of this underrecognized composer who studied with Casella. Bruno Maderna's Serenata N.2 demonstrates his integration of serial technique with Venetian lyricism. Aldo Clementi's Concerto Per Pianoforte E Sette Strumenti exemplifies his distinctive contrapuntal layering, influenced by his study of Flemish polyphony.

The Solisti di Teatromusica toured Europe throughout the 1970s, premiering and recording works by Berio, Bussotti, Cage, Feldman, and Schnebel. This release documents Italian contemporary music at a pivotal moment, as the post-serial generation consolidated its achievements.
