Ennio Morricone, one of the greatest composers of the last seven decades passed away at dawn today.

Ennio Morricone dies aged 91

The Guardian list of 10 of his greatest compositions is just a small snapshot of his vast talent. I hadn't heard some of these. Rather than embed them all I've added the link and we can put our own favourites in this thread.

The whole score was perfect but this was my favourite part of the Once Upon A Time In America soundtrack.

Deborah's Theme.

I found this track written for the BBC in 1981 which many people will have forgotten.

Chi Mai (Theme from 'The Life & Times Of David Lloyd George')

I wasn't living in the UK at the time it was broadcast but I wouldn't have watched it either.
A Welsh politician who was British prime minister (1916–22) isn't something I'd spend 9 hours on even now!

haha
thought he was a British PM,at one stage
we NZ got a lot of the English programs/and everything else, in the early days,before we got USA stuff

i was actually trying to remember if it was also a theme used for a Greek luxury ship/ yacht program,where they sailed the waters around the Greek isles at the same time

[Yorkie]

He was so modest about the western soundtracks saying anyone could have done them. No-one else did though!

Ipecac Records releases a double/triple CD of his in the early 00s. Mike Patton is a huge fan of Ennio and essentially paid to put out an Ennio compilation.
