In the interwar period, Giovanni Salviucci was recognised as one of Italy's most talented composers alongside Luigi Dallapiccola and Goffredo Petrassi but his early successes and all future hopes were quashed by his untimely death in 1937. The 'Serenade for 9 Instruments', at times rhythmically restless, at others tender and cantabile, and the angular, harmonically daring, neo-classical 'Chamber Symphony for 17 Instruments', are two of his most forward-looking compositions. The unpublished 'String Quartet', at the heart of which lies an 'Adagio Molto' of extraordinary emotional impact, is a true gem.
