note:
Here we see the genius of Ennio Morricone as evidenced by
the collection of melodic, romantic themes that comprise
'Morricone In Love'
Flooding his music with feeling, the maestro is time and
again able to inspire from his musicians performances of
extraordinary emotional intensity.
Often a Morricone soundtrack will elevate an otherwise modest
film to an unfathomable artistic status and ‘Love
Sequence 1’ from the obscure 'Crescete e Moltiplicatevi'
is a case in point; a wonderfully sensuous composition that
open's the album with the loveliest of vocals from the unique
Edda Dell'Orso.
Then 'Una Donna Da Ricordare (A Woman To Remember)' from
the little known 'Maddalena' bursts with charm before we
reach more familiar territory with 'Messico e Irlanda' from
'Giu La Testa (a fistful of dynamite)' one of Morricone's
greatest soundtracks; where James Coburn recalls in flashback
and with some sentimentality his earlier life in Ireland.
Morricone's music to support this famous scene is wonderful.
Simply hauntingly magical
Moving on, the composer delivers an appropriately melancholic
theme for the tragic 'Verushka' and in 'D'amore si muore
(for love one dies)' deals effortlessly with obsession,
"I don't love you, I adore you. I'll only be happy
when you're dead"
"MORRICONE IN LOVE" is a sensitive, dreamlike
experience.
Following:
"PSICHEDELICO
JAZZISTICO" and "MORRICONE
HIGH" (mod psychedelia) and "MORRICONE
KILL " (The spaghetti western) in the series
of themed editions of the maestro's work.
