It reached #1 in Italy, #1 in Germany, #1 in Austria, #1 in Switzerland, #2 in Australia, #8 in the UK Singles Chart, and #32 in the US Billboard Hot 100. “Il Silenzio“ (“The Silence“) is an instrumental piece, with a small spoken Italian lyric, notable for its trumpet theme. It was written in 1965 by trumpet player Nini Rosso. The song “The Silence” in English is a more recent composition than “Taps.” It is a memorial piece commissioned by the Dutch and first played in 1965 on the 20th anniversary of the liberation of the Netherlands (in WWII). The thematic melody of the song was an extension of the same Italian Cavalry bugle call used by Tchaikovsky to open his “Capriccio Italien.” The song is the official club anthem of the Slovak football club FC Spartak Trnava. It is played before every home match. Part of the song is also used in all the Italian barracks, to signal the end of the day. It has the same use in the Hellenic Army. The song is also very often played at funerals in Poland. Nini Rosso was an accomplished musician known for his expressive trumpet playing. He passed away from lung cancer in 1994 at the age of 68. “Il Silenzio“ remains a poignant and evocative piece, showcasing Rosso’s incredible talent and the enduring power of music to touch the hearts of listeners around the world.
