Ennio Morricone was an Italian composer known for his fusion of classical and popular music. Born in Rome in 1928, he developed a diverse musical personality, embracing both serialism and experimental improvisation. He gained recognition through collaborations with renowned directors such as Sergio Leone and Quentin Tarantino. In addition to his iconic film scores, Morricone's non-film works have been widely performed and showcase his unique compositional techniques. His numerous accolades include an Academy Award, Grammy, and Leone d'oro.
Morricone's career began with minor cinematic collaborations but skyrocketed with Sergio Leone's Westerns. He went on to work with esteemed directors like Giuseppe Tornatore, Brian De Palma, Roland Joffé, and Pedro Almodóvar. With over 400 film scores to his name, Morricone masterfully blended classical and popular idioms.
In addition to his film compositions, Morricone created non-film works that showcased his technique of 'micro-cells'. These pieces often incorporated modal and tonal allusions while maintaining a pseudo-serial approach. His innovative use of composition materials extended beyond the realm of cinema.

Il Serpente (Night Flight from Moscow) is a 1973 spy and thriller film directed by Henri Verneuil,
 starring among others Yul Brinner, Henry Fonda and Philippe Noiret.
 It’s one of the French director’s six movies that feature a soundtrack composed by Ennio Morricone,
 who here managed to describe the thrilling atmosphere of this high-voltage espionage, alternating
 dramatic and mysterious passages ("Assassinio sul Lago", "Il Serpente") and experimental ones
 ("Astrazione con Ritmo", "Esplicitamente Sospeso") to other soft and sensual ("Canzone Lontana"),
 still with the amazing contribution of Edda Dell'Orso and Alessandro Alessandroni’s I Cantori Moderni.
 "Tema per una Donna Sola" Morricone is a sweet and melancholic theme with modern rhythmic
 patterns; There is also music with a danceable flavor such as "Nadine" with organ, groovy drums and
 rock guitars, always with Cantori Moderni’s wonderful voices, a solemn church organ-only
 composition (“Orazione”) and an excited march ("Parata Militare").
 Clear yellow vinyl edition with remastered audio and new artwork.
