The Cappella della Pietà de' Turchini is an early music ensemble based in Naples
and dedicated to the recovery of Neapolitan musical heritage, primarily from the
baroque era.

The name of church, conservatory, and now the modern cappella and music centre
go back to the turquoise (Italian "turchino") shirts worn by the original
children of the institute. The association between church, conservatory, and
commercial opera productions goes back to the roots of the original Pietà de'
Turchini, and the days when Leonardo Leo used his students from the
Conservatorio Pietà de' Turchini as chorus singers in his opera productions.

Florio's work in recovering music which has lain unperformed for three centuries
often involves reconstructing lost parts, or "discreetly recomposing" missing
portions from larger works. A particular focus has been the recovery of the
music of Francesco Provenzale, Giovanni Salvatore and Cristofaro Caresana.
