BASE METALS, PURE GOLD: THE SCORES OF ENNIO MORRICONE

ENNIO MORRICONE was one of cinema's great musical inventors, a composer who treated the soundtrack as a laboratory. Capable of melodies of overwhelming beauty, he was equally drawn to whistles, screams, electric guitars, church bells, jaw harps, typewriters, animal noises, avant-garde electronics, and any other sound that might serve the drama. Working across westerns, thrillers, political films, horror, crime stories, art cinema, and far beyond, he created scores that don't simply accompany the image but reshape it. Few composers did more to transform noise into wonder.
