The publication of the pieces included on this album aims to promote and disseminate a lesser-known chamber music repertoire among concert-goers: a repertoire which, due to its originality, undoubtedly deserves cultural and musical appreciation in every era. The two composers represented in this edition need no introduction: Francesco Cilea, who is linked to the operatic tradition and bel canto and composed famous operas such as L'Arlesiana and Adriana Lecouvreur, and Alessandro Longo, who was the first to revise all 555 harpsichord sonatas by Domenico Scarlatti and is the author of the well-known 12-volume Tecnica Pianistica. Longo was also the founder of the renowned Neapolitan music magazine L'Arte Pianistica.

Gianfrancesco Federico on the violin, Giuseppe Currao on the clarinet and Ugo Federico on the piano lead through these compositions, which are of great interest for understanding the Italian musical landscape of the early 20th century.
