| In the soundtrack of this movie, Morricone's signature whistles, hooves, whips, and powerful electric guitar sounds that are often talked about are gone. He is conducting some softer and more avant-garde experiments, constructing themes around brass, orchestral music, electric guitar, and soft horns, which is unique among Morricone's few westerns. All of these are based on bold timpani themes, driving everything forward. Examples of this include "First Commandment to Shoot / Primo Comandamento: Spara", "Third Commandment to Gold / Terzo Comandamento", and the shocking and emotionally charged ending "Last Commandment to Kill Traitors / Ultimo Comandamento: Uccidi i Traditori"。（See here） |

This movie seems to have never had its soundtrack released. Some introductions can be seen on websites such as YT and ChiMai, where some of its music references movies such as FA7001- "Citta 'Violents / Violent City" and FA7006- "Le foto prohibite di una signora perbene / A suspicious photo of a lady" |

RFA7124 Alla scoperta dell'America / Discovering America |
This is a RAI television documentary that specifically narrated the story: Use his puppet to represent Columbus' arduous and wonderful experience of discovering America. There has been much debate over the time when Morricone composed the music for this TV series, spanning 16 years from 1961 to 1977. There are numerous audio discs of this TV series, but the video is difficult to find, which adds a lot of mystery and makes it even more precious |
|
|
The soundtrack of this movie may not be as well-known as other music composed by Morricone, and later generations call it the first connection between Morricone and the United States. Its theme is original and unforgettable, especially "Tema d'amore / Theme of love", which can be regarded as his most outstanding work. Enthusiasts will also recognize Morricone's musical characteristics through his sense of humor (such as "Misterioso, per Elisa / The Mystery of Eliza") and whistle ("The Finale"). ( See here） |

RFA7607 Rene la Canne / Sugarcane Rene
|
| His real name was René Girier (1919-2000). He was a poor man from a young age and was famous for his eight prison escapes in 17 years, made his escape through a hole at the bottom of a prison car, creating a miracle of the world that became a surprise for many later films. In 1956, he finally converted, with the inspiration and help of the prison visitor Princess Charlotte of Monaco. He opened a bookstore in Lance in 1957, published his autobiography several times under different titles: 1952 (Life), 1977 (I Bow) and 1988 (You Don't Know), and joined the social movement to transform criminals. He died in a nursing home in Lance on February 1, 2000, and his remains are buried in a cemetery in Neuvillette, Lance. Although this film is not very ideal, I would like to contribute it to everyone out of admiration for Master Moricone and exclaim for the decline of the life of Linné Gillier. If you are interested, please see "The Rare Volume of Moricone" pages 190-202 for more information. |

| Morricone adopted a different approach from typical music in composing the music for this film, often appearing with discordant humor, absurdity, and even tragic tones, often evoking emotions such as "Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion", "My name is nobody", and other film scores |

This French TV series consists of 6 episodes and tells 6 different stories that happened on the Orient train from 1914 to 1939. The third episode of Morricone's composition is a unexpected story that happened unexpectedly during a visit to Venice by a British university professor on the Orient Express for academic research, following the attempted assassination of Mussolini in 1926 ... |

This album is essentially constructed from two themes -18 out of 19 tracks are referred to as "What's the Meaning / Che Senso Ha" or "Orient Express". But it brings joy to the audience through many different variations. 'Train/Le Train' is a beautiful theme with a slight pop beat, and Edda dell'Orso's classic female voice is unforgettable |

RFA9606AB Nostromo |
Nostromo "is a famous novel written by Polish British author Joseph Conrad, ranking 47th among the top 100 English novels of the 20th century in the American Modern Library. The novel revolves around the power struggle triggered by silver mining resources. Charles Gould attempts to achieve national stability by funding a dictatorship, but the enormous wealth intensifies the competition among various forces, ultimately leading to revolution and warlord separatism. Nostromo, known as the 'uncorroded', faces moral choices in a corrupt environment |

The music composed by Morricone for this masterpiece is considered the masterpiece of the most talented film composer in history. The soundtrack is 2CD: 'Nostromo' is a highly romantic and expansive melody, known as the best theme in the career of a film composer. Each theme in the music has been arranged differently, making it fascinating even after countless listens. Among them, "The Silver Of The Mine" stands out the most. Critic Shaosol said, "When you hear this song, you will fall in love and be amazed by Morricone's genius; I am surprised that it is not listed as one of his most outstanding works more often - perhaps not enough people know about it“（ See here） |

RFA9107 Piazza di Spagna (5 episodes of TV drama） |
"Spanish Square" is a cultural, artistic, and shopping center in Rome. Annabelle is a beautiful girl from a humble background who works as a salesperson in a shoe store. In order to enter the fashion industry, she personally experienced various events in the upper class of Rome, which were both glamorous and full of hypocrisy, conspiracies, and even life and death struggles. This TV series is nearly 8 hours long, and I have been searching for it for many years but have never seen its trace. Fortunately, Professor Lee Jin won from the Korea Academy of Arts, a fan of Morricone in Korea in 2023, provided me with this extremely valuable resource. With his consent, it is now available for everyone to appreciate, study within this scope。Hope to cherish together |
