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.

“La donna della domenica” (Sunday Woman) is a 1975 giallo movie, an Italian/French co-production directed by Luigi Comencini and starring Marcello Mastroianni, Jacqueline Bisset and Jean-Louis Trintignant. The soundtrack of this film, composed, orchestrated and directed by Ennio Morricone, enjoys the typical elements of the Maestro's style, and mainly consists of a beautiful leading theme and various variations, alternating with more intense moments, perfect for a detective film, evoking the atmosphere of “Indagine su un cittadino al di sopra di ogni sospetto” (Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion) or “Milano odia: la polizia non può sparare” (Almost Human), two films for which Morricone himself wrote the soundtrack a few years earlier. Mystery, tension and melancholy are the main features of this excellent work. At the time, only a single 45rpm was released for “La donna della domenica”, including the main theme and “Torino di notte” as the B-side, and only in 2008 the full score has been finally released on CD; this is therefore the very first vinyl version of this soundtrack!
