Al Santo Glorioso (Inno di San Francesco di Paola) Op. 30

“For the Glorious Saint” (Saint Francis of Paola’s Hymn) Op. 30 – 

I used to live opposite Saint Francis of Paola’s church, and during a religious celebration I heard the traditional hymn that was composed for Him. This sumptuous, emphatic and joyful music absorbed me so much that I sat at the piano and I reworked it in a personal composition.
