The story behind
The piece Moses: Journey, part of the Marco Polo Suite, immerses us in a sonic atmosphere that evokes a journey, a passage. With a duration of 2 minutes and 34 seconds, this composition by Ennio Morricone feels like a musical brushstroke that captures the essence of a trip, without the need for words. The way the sound is constructed, with intertwining layers, suggests the progression and discovery inherent in any expedition.
The creation of Moses: Journey was overseen by maestro Ennio Morricone, who also took on the role of producer. In the recording booth, engineers Damiano Antinori and Fabio Venturi worked to shape this piece. Born in Rome in 1928, Morricone is a central figure in film music composition, with a legacy spanning over 500 soundtracks. His work extended across various genres, and he is especially remembered for his collaborations with Sergio Leone on Spaghetti western films, such as A Fistful of Dollars (1964), For a Few Dollars More (1965), The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966), and Once Upon a Time in the West (1968). In addition to these iconic soundtracks, his repertoire includes symphonic and choral works, and compositions for films like Days of Heaven, The Mission, and Cinema Paradiso.
