I just picked up a CD for 50p from a Cancer Research charity shop. Hayley Westenra singing along to Ennio Morricone tunes. Album is called Paradiso. Thoughts?
It's decent kev. She has good voice. Very passable Metti una sera a cena
i can´t stand her voice, it´s very "thin" and painful to listen to! and "focus" is a masterpiece!
Thanks Bill, Governor and Prince. These pictures always bring tears in my eyes. Would any other composer benefit such huge murals ? I don't think so. The legend goes on...

The day he died, the first 15 minutes of the national broadcast of the TG1 from RAI 1 (Evening news hosted by Laura Chimenti) were dedicated to Ennio Morricone and then a special rerun of an inteview from Che Tempo Che Fa with Fabio Fazio. Without counting the "Grazie Maestro" during ads cuts all day long. A HUGE national loss.
To celebrate the memory of the Maestro, I finally picked up a CD I didn't play for ages : NANA, LE DÉSIR. You could object it's of course certainly not among his masterpieces but it still has some nice moments. And it's pleasant throughout. I by the way wonder why this score never got reissued since the CD release harking back to 2000.
