Esta semana la estamos iniciando con una noticia bastante dolorosa, pues el compositor italiano Ennio Morricone falleció a los 91 años de edad después de haber estado hospitalizado a raíz de una caída que sufrió la semana pasada.
Morricone falleció la mañana de este lunes 6 de julio en Roma y a lo largo de su sólida carrera se involucró en más de 500 proyectos cinematográficos que fueron desde los westerns de Sergio Leone a los clásicos de Quentin Tarantino y la sombría estética visual de John Carpenter.
Desde que se dio a conocer su lamentable deceso han aparecido varios tributos que recorren tanto el ámbito del cine como de la música, pues New Order, Massive Attack, Portishead, Goldfrapp, El-P, Banck Mass y hasta luminarias como Antonio Banderas han publicado los homenajes que pueden ver a continuación.
Descanse en paz Ennio Morricone (1928 – 2020).
"I saw with great sadness that one of my musical heroes, Ennio Morricone has passed away today. His music introduced me to albums and the first album I ever bought was one of his. He made beautiful emotional music and was the master of melody."

Sad to hear about the passing of Ennio Morricone today. He was a huge inspiration for Goldfrapp too, in particular Felt Mountain. X ? Here’s a playlist we’ve made for you of some our favourite Morricone tracks: https://t.co/2kfOceqJLJ pic.twitter.com/eIitK3lkp9

This one is difficult for me to stomach.
Ennio, You will never know how much your music has meant to me, but I will never forget. Thanks for making this fucked up world more bearable. I love you.

RIP And now Ennio Morricone. One of the greatest composers of all time. You can hear our tributes to him in Africa Dawn on the Lilyhammer Score, and the new arrangement of Standing In The Line of Fire on Soulfire & Soulfire Live. Like Nick, another tragic loss to our culture.
