The impression one gets is that Rozsa, who seems to have had a passion for Italy and an interest in Italian history, used the country as a more sympathetic escape from Hollywood, each Summer. The music he wrote there however seems exclusively Hungarian. There's no operatic aspect to his choral works for example whatsoever. Occasionally an Italian feel emerges in his film works, particularly the strings, for example in 'A Story of Three Loves' but his obsessive nature I think lends itself to compartmentalization .... so he could be Hungarian solely in his concert works whilst bathing in Italian atmosphere off-duty. Mind you, there's a very sensitive yet not delicate fluidity of expression in his concert stuff that could imply an Italian FEEL, subliminally absorbed.
