Ennio Morricone’s “hidden works” featured on new comp w/ 7 unreleased tracks
Ennio Morricone, who died in July at age 91, was one of the most prolific composers of the last 60 years (including over 20 film scores in 1971 alone), so there is no shortage of music to explore for even those who consider themselves avid fans. But there is still more — a new compilation of Morricone rarities, Morricone Segreto, will be out November 6 via Decca.
The 27-track double album, whose title translates to "Secret Morricone," features seven unreleased tracks by the Maestro, as well as rare pieces and alternate takes, all from his peak period (1969-1980). You can watch a trailer for the album below, and stream the title theme from 1975's giallo-horror film Macchie Solari (aka Autopsy) — full of oboe and otherworldly "ahhs" — below.
You can pre-order Morricone Segreto now.
