01/ Man With The Harmonica (3.52)
With a large budget thanks to US money,

Sergio Leone created his Western
masterpiece, full of epic grandeur and great
actors including Henry Fonda and Jason
Robards. Composer Ennio Morricone
matched his former schoolmates step-up
with a towering score that remain timeless.
02/ Jills Theme (6.03)
Jills (Claudia Cardinale) theme from the

film is an elegaic piece, one of Ennio
Morricones greatest compositions,
haunting, spine-chilling but full of
romanticism.
Philharmonic Orchestra / Track 1 conducted
by Paul Bateman / Track 2 conducted by
Nic Raine, Jill Washington (Vocals)
03/ 04/ Romeo And Juliet

(Nino Rota) 1968 UK/Italy
03/ Love Theme (2.42)
Franco Zeffirelli breathed new life into

Shakespeare with his gorgeous unknown
leads, Olivia Hussey and Leonard Whiting
alongside superb locations. The beauty of the
film is further enhanced by Nino Rotas score
which defines romantic.
04/ Romeo And Juliet Are Wed (1.45)
Shakespeare wrote that, If music be

the food of love play on and never more
so here with Rotas piece for solo organ
accompanied by vocalist Anna Polakova
to create an exquisite wedding scene.

05/ The Young Girls Of

Rochefort (Les Demoiselles
De Rochefort) Concerto (2.09)
08/ 09/ A Man And

A Woman (Un Homme
Et Une Femme)
Jacques Demys second homage to the

Hollywood musical all recreated in France
in the town of Rochefort with the added
bonus of Gene Kelly. Michel Legrands
sumptous score is revisited here by the
maestro himself with the Moscow Virtuosi.
08/ A Man And A Woman (2.43)
(Michel Legrand) 1967 France
Published by EMI Music. Performed by

Michel Legrand and Moscow Virtuosi
06/ Play Time
(3.06)
(Francis Lemarcque) 1967 France/Italy
Music is integral to the films of Jacques Tati
as much of the action unfolding on screen has
little dialogue. Playtime is widely regarded
now as a masterpiece although it bankrupted
the star. Singer-songwriter Francis Lemarque
added the perfect musical shadings to Tatis
take on the insanity of modern life.

07/ Django (2.58)
(Luis Bacalov)
1967 Italy
One of the great spaghetti westerns without

a US lead, Franco Nero starred in the title
role and the film spawned a whole industry
of films with Django in the title. Nero
featured in Quentin Tarantinos 2012 film
Django Unchained which once more utilised
Luis Bacalovs great theme.
Performed by Keith Ferreira (Vocals)
and London Music Works conducted
by Evan Jolly
(Francis Lai) 1966 France
One of the most revered French films of all

time, a widow and widower casually meet
up, dropping their children at school and
their affair develops over time. Francis
Lai penned the score before the film was
shot allowing the actors to improvise with
the music playing on set. The title theme
remains the archetypal French love song.
09/ Today Its You (2.09)
This dramatic piece from the film is still

heard today with its adaption providing
the theme to the long running BBC current
affairs programme Panorama.
Published by SDRM / MCA Music

Performed by Keith Ferreira and Mary
Carewe (Vocals) and The City of Prague
Paul Bateman
10/ 11/ The Good, The Bad

And The Ugly (Il Buono,
Il Brutto, Il Cattivo)
(Ennio Morricone)
1966 Italy/Spain/West Germany
10/ Main Title (2.54)
The Sergio Leone film where with three

great actors, Clint Eastwood, Lee Van
Cleef and Eli Wallach, the spaghetti
western reached across the globe. Ennio
Morricones magnificent theme was slightly
watered down by American orchestra leader
and composer Hugo Montenegro, who was
rewarded with four weeks at number one in
the UK in November 1968.
11/ The Ecstasy Of Gold (3.01)
The final scenes of the film as the three

protagonists circle each other in a
graveyard in one of the great showdowns in
film history demanded a great theme. Ennio
Morricone delivered The Ecstasy Of Gold,
one of his finest compositions which builds
the tension to breaking point.
Orchestra conducted by Derek Wadsworth,
Crouch End Festival Chorus (choir), David
Temple (choir conductor), Anna Thomas
(Soprano) on track 11
12/ For A Few Dollars

More (Per Qualche
Dollaro In Pi)
Main Titles (3.33) (Ennio Morricone)

A real screen rarity, a follow-up that

surpasses the original and with even better
music. Maestro Morricones genius and
his background in experimental music is
defined in The Colonels (Lee Van Cleef)
theme based around his pocket watch
chime, timing the fastest draw.
Orchestra conducted by Derek Wadsworth,
Mark Ayres (Guitar), Crouch End Festival
Chorus (choir), David Temple (choir conductor)
13/ Juliet Of The Spirits

(Giulietta Degli Spiriti) (7.17)
(Nino Rota) 1965 Italy/France
Fellini claimed that he took LSD before

making Juliet so coupled with his vivid
imagination this story of a bored woman
explodes across the screen in a web of
vivid fantasies. Nino Rotas score is a
kaleidoscope of jazz, electronic stylings
and the spirit of the circus.
14/ A Fistful of Dollars

(Per Un Pugno Di Dollari)
(3.28) (Ennio Morricone)

Clint Eastwood after years of toiling in the TV

series Rawhide found everlasting stardom in
the first spaghetti western to get an international
release. The film marks the first collaboration
between Ennio Morricone and director Sergio
Leone. In a 2006 interview Morricone claimed
that the score was one of his worst.
15/ Ghidorah, The

Three Headed Monster
(San Daikaij: Chiky
Saidai No Kessen) (2.19)
(Akira Ifukube)
1964 Japan
Godzilla and Rodan patch up their

differences and their usual pastime of
destroying Japan and team up with Mothra
to destroy The Three Headed Monster. Fifty
years on and in a world of film dominated
by SFX the Godzilla series looks positively
historic but once again Akira Ifukubes
composing skills give the film a veneer of
class.

16/ The Umbrellas

Of Cherbourg
(Les Parapluies
De Cherbourg) (3.57)
(Michel Legrand)
1964 France/West Germany
A Hollywood style musical mostly filmed on

location in Cherbourg and shot through with
beautiful pastel colours and entirely sung
in French with no dialogue. A tough film
to sell but a triumph for director Jacques
Demy scooping the Academy Award for
Best Foreign Language Film and receiving
four other nominations, three for Michel
Legrands awesome songs and score. The
music and film remain timeless.
Published by Sony/ATV Music
Performed by Michel Legrand
and The Moscow Virtuosi
17/ Zorba The Greek

(Alexis Zorbas)
Zorbas Dance (4.21)
(Mikis Theodorakis)
1964 USA/Greece
When upright Englishman Alan Bates

returns to Crete to claim an inheritance he
meets up with vivacious peasant Anthony
Quinn and learns great life lessons. Mikis
Theodarakis enchanting score and theme
providing the music for one of cinemas
seminal scenes, with Quinn and Bates
dancing on the beach. A moment created
by Quinn who had injured his foot during
filming and invented a dance with a slidedragging shuffling step. Asked by director
Michael Cacoyannis what the dance was
he made up the name on the spot, a Sirtaki,
and claimed it was traditional. A legend
was born.

01/ 8 (Otto E Mezzo) (5.14)
(Nino Rota)
1963 Italy/France
Marcelo Mastroianni starred as a director

who is artistically bankrupt retreating
into the fantasies of his past life. Fellinis
masterpiece and another supreme
soundtrack from Nino Rota. As the great
director said, Between us there existed
immediately a complete understanding.
Nino had no need to see my films. During
the screenings, in fact, he would often fall
into a deep sleep. Images didnt concern
him: his was an interior world .

Portmaneau film with four directors De Sica,

Monicelli, Visconti and Fellini re-imagining

(Jules Et Jim)
Main Theme / Vacances (5.01)
(Georges Delerue)
1962 France
Francois Truffauts new wave classic about

a love triangle starring Jeanne Moreau
which broke new ground in cinema from
mobile cameras and still frames to voiceover narration. Georges Delerues music
for Truffaut films caused the New York
Times to say Many of these scores have a
shimmering atmospheric quality that recalls
Debussy and other effects that evoke Satie.
Published by Multimood Music

04/ Phaedra (5.18)
(Mikis Theodorakis)
1962 France/Greece/USA
Jules Dassins retelling of the Greek
mythological tale of an older woman
falling for her stepson. The Theodarakis
score featured two songs sung by Melina
Mercouri which have become standards
in Greece.

05/ La Dolce Vita

Suite (7.11)
(Nino Rota)
1960 Italy/France
Fellins prescient story of a gossip
columnist (Marcelo Mastroianni) who is
seeking something more in his vacuous life.
Rotas score is one of his best, a jukebox
of musical styles from jazz to rock to match
the constant movement on the screen.
Performed by SIAE / Sabam
conducted by Derek Wadsworth
06/ Never On Sunday

(Pote Tin Kyriaki) (4.36)
(Manos Hadjidakis)
1960 Greece/USA

theme tune.

10/ Nights Of Cabiria

(Le Notte Di Cabiria) (6.08)
(Luiz Bonfa)
1959 Brazil/France/Italy
(Nino Rota)
1957 Italy /France

moved to the setting of the Rio carnival.
The score by Luiz Bonfa and Antonio Carlos
Jobim carried the sound of Brazil across
the globe.
Academy award winning Fellini tale of an

indefatigable streetwalker in Rome, a city
full of characters and a precursor to La
Strada. Combining vaudeville, jazz and
pathos, Rotas music emphasises the child
like persona of Giulietta Masina, the star of
the film and Fellinis wife.

08/ Honeymoon
(Luna de miel)
The Honeymoon Song (3.12)
(Mikis Theodorakis)
1959 UK/Spain
Legendary British director Michael Powell

brought the beauty of Spain and its culture
of dance to the screen in this technicolor
travelogue. Mikis Theodarakis Honeymoon
Song features throughout and so impressed
Paul McCartney when he saw the film, The
Beatles recorded it for a BBC session in 1963.
Paul said later, The Honeymoon Song wasnt
a big hit but I liked it, thought it was a nice tune.
I was the force behind that, the others thought
it was a real soppy idea, which I can see now!

(Francois Barcellini)
1958 France/Italy
Jacques Tatis Monsieur Hulot character

holiday to battle modern life in the city in
this comic masterpiece. Franck Barcellinis
repetitive and simple music provides the
perfect counterpoint to the comedy.

(Nino Rota)
1955 Italy/France
A gang of rogues and swindlers prey on

the poor until their leader comes across his
daughter in sad circumstances and pledges

once more provides pure screen magic in
this tale of redemption.

(Nino Rota)
1954 Italy
Brutal strongman Zampano (Anthony

Quinn) purchases a slow witted young girl
Gelsomina (Fellinis wife Giulietta Masina)

spell with the theme taught to Gelsomina for
their act reappearing in the night club scene
of La Dolce Vita.

16/ Alexander Nevsky

(Aleksandr Nevskiy)
American nuclear weapon testing creates

a 164 foot tall monster who goes on the
rampage in Japan in the original film that
became a series and a cult across the
world. Akira Ifukubes scores always add a
touch of class to the low budget on screen
and were usually written within a week such
was the fast turnaround on these films.

14/ I Vitelloni (3.01)

(Nino Rota)
1953 Italy/France
Five men just entering their thirties dream

of leaving Rimini and their humdrum lives

train whistles all elegantly framed by Nino
Rotas melancholy score.
by Derek Wadsworth
15/ The White Sheik

(Lo Sceicco Bianco) (2.46)
(Nino Rota)
1952 Italy
Fellinis first film as sole director sets the

tone for the development of his later work
as a honeymooning couple in Rome on a
visit to relatives and a Papal audience lose
each other with the young wife succumbing
to the charms of the comic character of
the title. Nino Rotas score, like Fellinis
direction is setting the tone for what is
to come, cinematic legend.

Alexanders Entry Into Pskov (4.21)
Revered Russian director Sergei Eisenstein

is one of the godfathers of film as we know
it today. His epic tale of 13th century Russia
and a moth-eaten army repelling a Teutonic
invasion foreshadowed future events in
World War II. Composer Sergei Prokofievs
score is widely regarded as a benchmark in
matching images to music in film.
