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.

In the previous year 1965, A Fistful of Dollars by Sergio Leone was a huge success, and had greatly increased the popularity of the 'spaghetti western' genre. With the two lead actors Clint Eastwood and Gian Maria Volonte For a Few Dollars More is the natural progression of that movie, and the addition of the third major star - Lee Van Cleef - a trio that made history in another Sergio Leone masterpiece.Ennio Morricone's music is equally important. The Maestro here chooses a 'poor' registry, consisting of folk instruments such as ocarina, Jew's harp and chimes, respectively used to accompany the entrance of the three main actors. There is as usual, the contributions of Alessandro Alessandroni and his Cantori Moderni choir, for an incredibly exciting vocal climax.This edition sees the eight tracks of the original score in a brand new layout.
