Oscar winning Ennio Morricone, one of the world's best-known and most prolific film composers, died in Rome at the age of 91
Italian composer Ennio Morricone directs an ensemble during a concert of his"60 Year Of Music World Tour" in Milan, Italy, Tuesday, March 6, 2018.
His iconic so-called Spaghetti Western movies saw him work closely with the late Italian film director Sergio Leone. “Inspiration does not exist,” Morricone said in a 2004 interview with The Associated Press. “What exists is an idea, a minimal idea that the composer develops at the desk, and that small idea becomes something important.”In a later interview, with Italian state TV, Morricone cited “study, discipline and curiosity” as the keys to his creative genius.
Morricone's sound tracks, Mattarella said, “contributed greatly to spreading and reinforcing the prestige of Italy in the world.”His music punctuated the long silences typical of the Spaghetti Westerns, with the characters locked in close-ups, staring at each other and waiting for their next moves. After studying trumpet and composition at the Conservatory of the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in the Italian capital, he started working as a trumpeter and then as an arranger for record companies.
