Italian term or phrase: sottovoce e senza clamore (qui)

Si tratta di Genova... Non e' che io non abbia capito le parole/il concetto, ma non mi viene niente di decente in tedesco:

Un lembo di terra che si apre
a semicerchio tra monti e mare.
Questa è Genova, che racconta
***sottovoce e senza clamore*** la
sua grandezza passata, attraverso
i palazzi nobiliari, le ville
e le collezioni dei suoi musei.

Chi ha una giornata piu' creativa di me...???

Grazie 1000! Miriam

Explanation:
Da es sich hier um eine Stadt handelt, die etwas zu "erzählen" hat, würde ich es etwas freier formulieren:

Diese Stadt (Genua), die uns von ihrer großen Vergangenheit erzählt, leise und unaufdringlich (ohne sich aufzudrängen / ohne sich in den Vordergrund zu drängen)...
