The artists and genres The Millennium Bell came out of — one hop back on the influence tree.
Rondò Veneziano is an Italian chamber orchestra, specializing in Baroque music, playing original instruments, but incorporating a rock-style rhythm section of synthesizer, bass guitar and drums, originally led by Maestro Gian Piero Reverberi, who is also the principal composer of all of the original Rondò Veneziano pieces. The unusual addition of modern instruments, more suitable for jazz, combined with Reverberi's arrangements and original compositions, have resulted in lavish novel versions of classical works over the years. As a rule in their concert tours, the musicians, mostly women, add to the overall Baroque effect wearing Baroque-era attire and coiffures. The orchestra's album sales exceeded 30 million in 2017. Since 2025, the new pianist and conductor is Stefano Marchioro, who previously served as keyboard programmer for Gian Piero Reverberi from 1996 to 2010.
