Infos about the Song:

A Tripoli (In Tripoli, also known as Tripoli bel suol d'amore), is a patriotic piece of music written by Giovanni Corvetto and set to music by Colombino Arona in 1911, just before the Italo-Turkish war began. It was composed to propagate the upcoming war of the Kingdom of Italy against the Ottoman Empire, which was aimed at the conquest of Libya.

The piece was composed shortly before Italy entered the war against the Ottoman Empire. War was declared on September 29, 1911, the day after the ultimatum delivered by the Italian ambassador in Constantinople to the Ottoman Empire. The intention of the Kingdom of Italy was to make Libya an Italian colony. The conflict ended on October 18, 1912 with the Italian victory.
