- Description:
- The "Marcia Reale" (or "Marcia Reale Italiana") is the national anthem associated with the Italian monarchy, the representative instance of political power already in place before Benito Mussolini came to power in October 1922, and which remained present throughout the Fascist period. When marketed as a record, the monarchist anthem most often accompanied "Giovinezza", the anthem of the National Fascist Party, which served as a second national anthem, on the other side of the record. In this way, the same record gives voice to and represents the two sides of Italian political power: the symbolic one, which represents the process of uniting Italy (the "Risorgimento") and thus the very possibility of its existence as a nation; the executive one, which intends to represent the national, even racial, development of Italy according to the palingenesis principle central to Fascism. The record to which this recording belongs is included in the "Hymns, marches and wartime songs" section of the Cetra label's 1942 catalog.
