Today, Ennio Morricone and Nino Rota are rightfully considered icons of world film music. The show dedicated to their work will present the most important stages of the two composers' careers, from iconic songs of the sixties to melodies written for Sergio Leone's films and created for Hollywood.
Marcello has been working in prestigious concert halls throughout Europe since 1995. He conducted the orchestras of the San Carlo in Naples, the Teatro Massimo in Palermo, the Enti Arena in Verona, the Italian National Orchestra, the Swiss-Italian Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Munich State Opera Orchestra.
The Swedish singer of Italian origin received her musical education at the Luigi Cherubini Conservatory in Florence. She became world famous thanks to her vocal accompaniment of Morricone’s music for Sergio Leone’s films «The Good, the Bad and the Ugly», «Once Upon a Time in the West», «A Fistful of Dynamite».
He graduated from the Conservatory of Santa Cecilia in piano and from the Licinio Refice Conservatory in Frosinone. In 1987 he began his career in film music. First as a pianist and keyboard player, and then as an arranger. He works with major Italian composers to create soundtracks for films.
He studied trumpet playing at the Conservatory of Sainta Cecilia in Rome. He began his career in the orchestra of the Teatro San Carlo in Naples, then worked at the Opera House in Rome. Today he is the first trumpet player of the National Academy of Santa Sicily, the Regional Orchestra of Tuscany and the RAI National Symphony Orchestra.
The program will allow you not only to hear the works of unsurpassed masters live, but also to make a unique emotional journey through the waves of Rota and Morricone's creativity, in which eternal themes are intertwined with the inner world of the creators. The ideological inspirer of the project was Marcello Rota, a world–renowned conductor. The music from the films is performed by soloists who have gone down in the history of Italian and world cinema: Nello Salza (trumpet), Ludovico Fulci (piano) Susanna Rigacci (soprano). Under the impeccable guidance of Maestro Morricone, they have given more than 500 concerts around the world.
