Ottorino Respighi (9 July 1879 – 18 April 1936) was an Italian composer, violinist, teacher, and musicologist.
Roma Therapy
His best known and most performed works are his three orchestral tone poems which brought him international fame: Fountains of Rome (1916), Pines of Romes (1924), and Roman Festivals (1928). – Wikipedia
Respighi was very at home
With the touristy vistas of Rome,
And what he provides
Are like Michelin Guides
To each classical pillar and dome.
