Bio / info
New Trolls is an Italian progressive rock band, known for their fusion of rock and classical music. The group was formed in the mid-60s from a previous band called The Trolls; original members were Vittorio De Scalzi (guitar, vocals), Nico Di Palo (guitar, vocals), Mauro Chiarugi (keyboards), Giorgio D'Adamo (bass, vocals), and Gianni Belleno (drums, vocals). After two albums of Hendrix-inflected psychedelic rock, they released Concerto Grosso per i New Trolls (1971), a highly regarded fusing of rock and classical music. By 1973, tensions led to a split, with De Scalzi and Di Palo going different ways and struggling over ownership of the band's name. De Scalzi released a few more albums with the New Trolls name, while Di Palo worked with Tritons and Ibis; the two halves reconciled and resumed activity in 1975. The band has continued intermittently since then with numerous personnel changes. De Scalzi has been the constant, sometimes with Di Palo, who also formed Il Mito New Trolls.
