Master of Film Music: Ennio Morricone

Morricone's music has touched millions of people for decades. His name is inextricably linked to some of the most beloved films ever made. Think of the unforgettable sounds from Once Upon a Time in the West, The Mission, Cinema Paradiso, and The Good, The Bad and the Ugly. Music that instantly transports you to iconic film scenes, evokes memories, and continues to inspire generations.

As one of the greatest film composers of all time, Morricone managed to elevate film music to a new level. His compositions live on far beyond the silver screen and are performed in concert halls all over the world.
