Ennio Morricone, Oscar-winning film composer, dies at 91

He died at dawn in a Rome hospital after falling and breaking his leg, his lawyer Giorgio Assumma said.

Morricone is best known internationally as the composer behind the instantly recognizable melodies from"The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" and"Once Upon a Time in the West." The Italian composer was famous for the scores of spaghetti Westerns and won an Academy Award for his score for Quentin Tarantino's"The Hateful Eight." Morricone requested a private funeral, Assumma said.

Ennio Morricone, Prolific Italian Composer for the Movies, Dies at 91The Italian composer, who scored more than 500 films — seven for his countryman Leone after they had met as kids in elementary school — died in Rome following complications from a fall last week People regard him as a great film composer, he wasn’t. He was a great composer who wrote everything from pop songs to full scale settings for masses. He will rightly be regarded as one of the giants of 20th century music along with Prokofiev, Vaughn Williams, Glass etc. The soundtrack to The Mission is a journey to empathy. What a contribution. May he rest in peace. This is very, very sad 😔😔😔 RIP
