Morricone's non-film works form a large and increasingly widely performed part of his output. Despite inevitable self-repetitions over a total of more than 400 film scores, his work provides many examples of a highly original fusion of classical and popular idioms. There followed important collaborations with directors such as Bernardo Bertolucci, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Elio Petri, Paolo and Vittorio Taviani, Valerio Zurlini, Roland Joffè and Brian De Palma. He thus developed two distinct sides to his musical personality: one of these led him to embrace serialism and the experimental work of the improvisation group Gruppo di Improvvisazione Nuova Consonanza the other gained him a leading role, principally as an arranger, in all types of mass-media popular music, including songs for radio, radio and television plays, and the first successful television variety shows.Īfter many minor cinematic collaborations, Morricone achieved wider recognition with Sergio Leone's series of four Westerns. A favourite pupil of Goffredo Petrassi, he also deputized secretly for his trumpeter father in a light music orchestra. Ennio Morricone (Italian pronunciation: ) was an italian composer (born 10 November 1928, Rome, Italy - died 6 July 2020, Rome, Italy).
