One year following his passing, Universal Music Italy is proud to pay a respectful and creative tribute to Ennio Morricone - a true Maestro who, in a career spanning more than seven decades, and through a dual role of both composer and conductor, brought so much prestige through music to his beloved home country.

If it is true that Maestro Morricone enjoyed enormous popularity for the many soundtracks he wrote – work which bestowed upon him multiple prizes and accolades, including two ©Oscar Awards - then it is also true that he remained keen on writing  pieces of classical music designed and conceived for performance in traditional concert halls. These compositions are designed for a range of forces - from solo instruments to complex symphonic ensembles.
