Il Volo Sings Morricone (Uk)

Double vinyl LP pressing. 2021 release. Il Volo Sings Morricone is an exciting journey through the art and music of one of the greatest composers of the 20th century. As a sign of the high esteem held for him, they decided to devote part of their amazing career to Ennio Morricone, with the endorsement from the Maestro's family for this exclusive global project. Il Volo Sings Morricone is an album with 14 songs recalling the Maestro's legendary melodies, which have remained forever etched in our memory, including an absolute gem: "L'estasi dell'oro" ("The Ecstasy of Gold" from the movie "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly"), which, for the first time ever, will be accompanied by lyrics written by Andrea Morricone specifically for Il Volo. The album was recorded in the Forum Studios in Rome, with Maestro Marcello Rota conducting the historic Roma Sinfonietta Orchestra, which - since it was established in 1994 - worked extensively with Maestro Ennio Morricone, performing under his musical direction at some of the world's most prestigious concert halls.
