Nostaglia, by Rossano Galante, literally means a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations. This orchestral setting is lyrical, joyous, and ultimately hopeful, taking the listener to a place of harmonic bliss. A strong full orchestra work for festival or the concert stage, the composition incorporates two melodic themes that build to a climactic resolution that utilizes the full ensemble. (5:00)
