An absolute Legend -RIP

 

[Icboschert]

the westerns he did and The Mission are some of the best soundtracks ever.

For those who haven't heard of Dulce Pontes: her interpretations of Morricones songs are very beautiful:

RIP. Those sphagetti western scores were constantly ringing in the head if one grew up in that era.

He was an original, from his work with the Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza to his Verdi-esque scores for Once Upon a Time in the West/America and Cinema Paradiso, etc.

RIP

I never watched westerns other than The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. I knew him more for the soundtrack to Once Upon a Time in America and a few films starring Jean-Paul Belmondo as the lead.

music : "Once upon a time in the west" (I've seen this movie in 1968 when I was living in Ivory Coast, Abidjan, Cinéma Le Paris, on a VERY large screen...)
"the man with the harmonica..."
