Ennio Morricone – 60 Years of Music
Ennio Morricone – 60 Years of Music is a new “record” with music by Ennio Morricone, newly recorded with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra. It is a curation of – as the title implies – music out of 60 years of the master’s work. Among them are a number of very famous title tracks from movie classics, but also a few lesser knowns. To round things off, there are a few titles that are not new recordings. The entire thing arrives (at least in the CD version I got from Universal Music) in a nice paper sleeve with a small booklet. The entire thing is also available as a nice vinyl thingy, and if you must, also in mp3 format. Please note that the transitions might not be as smooth as intended on some mp3 channels. I was amazed at the recordings, and not just the quality but also how close they were to the originals as you know them from the films. The audio is excellent and invites to dive into these masterful compositions. Among all the countless Morricone compilation albums out there, this is finally one that is actually a must own for fans. I loved listening to it. Some CD editions contain a bonus DVD with a documentary about the recording.
