Morricone
Morricone: the man, the music
2 CD set, Warner Classics
Maybe you've heard of Spaghetti Westerns? There were a
bunch made mostly back in the 1960s and 70s I think. The
name Clint Eastwood springs to mind here. The soundtracks
for some of these (The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly is one)
had quite memorable theme tunes and the composer was Ennio
Morricone ... and here we have two CDs worth ... but no theme
to TGTBaTU! Oh well.
The first disc is nevertheless of film music and the second is
piano music. As it happens, there is also quite a lot of piano
on disc one. If you like Morricone's work, or are a completist
collector of film music, then this is for you. If you're not,
it probably isn't.
(Dr Boots)
