* * *

Ennio Morricone ranks among the most prolific and imaginative composers of film scores currently working in the field. Born and educated in Rome and initially a composer of traditional classical music, Morricone began scoring Italian motion pictures in the early 1960s. He has since worked internationally as well, with more than 175 films to his credit.

Morricone once referred to film scoring as "one art applied to another," and he effectively uses music as a sort of aural paint to create the proper blend of sound and vision. At his best, he ignores the limits of conventionality; his scores mix-and-match rock, jazz, blues, pop, folk, and classical music with innovative instrumentation and an apt gift for melody. He also makes adventurous use of percussion, brass, vocal/choral, and other sound effectswhips, gunshots, animal and bird calls, and particularly the human whistle.

Often the results are remarkable. Morricone has long and most effectively been associated with Italian director Sergio Leone, headmaster of the "spaghetti Western" school of filmmaking. Morricone's rousing and memorable work for the Leone/Clint Eastwood "Man with No Name" trilogy brought him early prominence. The scoresA Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly match ideally the violence, emotion, and black humor inherent in the genre.

His masterpiece, the score for Once upon a Time in the West, is a beautiful complement to Leone's best film. Morricone provides a powerful emotional accompaniment with his accurate, gut-level renderings of the spectacle and myth of the Old West. Also particularly evocative among his credits is the pastorale score for Terrence Malick's Days of Heaven (a portrait of farm-workers set in 1916 Texas), which has as its centerpiece a short theme borrowed from the nineteenth-century French romantic composer Saint-Saëns.

Occasionally the eclecticism yields less-than-unified, if still interesting, efforts (such as My Name Is Nobody ). Morricone's inevitable weakness, naturally, is his prolificacy, which leads at times to listless scores and a certain repetition of the most facile ingredients of his distinctive style. Some of his more recent aims at the pop mainstreamBloodline, So Fine, Butterfly, The Thing miss the mark, serviceable but strictly unmemorable movie soundtracks. Once upon a Time in America teamed him once again with Leone in rather familiar musical territory, which won the composer his second British Academy Award.

In the late 1990s Morricone has shown no sign of reducing his musical output, continuing to turn out a prodigious quantity of scores, including La Leggenda del pianista sull'oceano, which has won several awards, including a Golden Globe, and Bulworth. La Leggenda tells the story of a man born in 1900 who never leaves the boat on which he lives, learning about the world from what people tell him. The score is central to the story: inspired by jazz and ragtime, Morricone has been commended for his careful historical research and painstaking attention to detail.

Morricone's versatile talent has served him well. He has composed for Westerns, romances, epics, thrillers, comedies, dramas. That his best music remains listenable independent of the films for which it was written is a worthy and enduring legacy.
