Filmic: Rota/Morricone: The Greatness of the Magnificence

Filmic: Rota/Morricone at St George's

A double bill of Italian film music at St George's from two of the greatest composers in the history of cinema: Nino Rota (The Godfather, La Strada, War and Peace, 8 1/2) and Ennio Morricone (The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Once Upon A Time in the West, A Fistful of Dollars, The Untouchables).

In the first half, jazz composer and pianist John Law will play his solo arrangements drawn from the famous, carnivalesque themes of Nino Rota, Fellini's favourite collaborator, who also worked with Visconti, Zefferelli and Francis Ford Coppola.

After the interval, Paris/Bristol collective The Greatness of the Magnificence present their magical and evocative 'Looking for Ennio', a celebration of the Spaghetti Western's composer-king Ennio Morricone, perhaps the most prolific figure in film music (currently working on Kill Bill, Vol 3!).

Fee: £13.00.

Please note this event takes place at St George's Bristol. You can buy tickets to this event online or by calling their Box Office on 0845 40 24 001.
