High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Pines of Rome is a symphonic poem written in 1924 by the Italian composer Ottorino Respighi, and forms one-third of his so-called Roman Trilogy, along with Fontane di Roma and Feste Romane. Each movement depicts the pine trees in different locations in Rome at different times of day. The first performance was given under conductor Bernardino Molinari in the Augusteo, Rome, on December 14, 1924. The first movement, "I pini di Villa Borghese", portrays noisy children playing soldiers and marching in the pine groves of the Borghese gardens. The second movement, "Pini presso una catacomba" is a majestic dirge, representing pine trees near a catacomb in Campagna. Lower orchestral instruments, plus the organ pedal at 16' and 32' pitch, suggest the subterranean nature of the catacombs, while the trombones represent priests chanting. The third part, "I pini del Gianicolo", is a nocturne set near a temple, on the Janiculum hill, of the Roman god Janus.
