But to be haunted by Ennio Morricone is an honour worth living for. It was Morricone’s music, then, that pulled me from the creative drought today to attempt this very adoration again.Īs I select just seven of the perhaps lesser known music tracks from a stupendously limitless film career, I’ll forever be haunted by the ones I didn’t include. I was late writing this very piece because a) my original poignant tribute was infuriatingly lost in the process and not to be recovered, and b) I got so bogged down with listening to Morricone’s endless melodic filmography, I simply drifted away rather than pour the words into paper.
A man whose uncompromising catalogue of movie music has long since earned him every single one of the overwhelming superlatives hurled at him. It is in the sad passing of legendary Italian film composer, Ennio Morricone, that we can embrace this to the fullest. With loss, we often have the capacity to reflect on someone’s existence and what they indeed might have achieved. In this world, there’s no way of accounting for the daily rate of births, and what life has in store for them.
