1 Ennio Morricone- Italian composer and conductor
Morricone is the master of melody and atmosphere, and one of 20th century's greatest soundtrack composers. He has an extraordinary ability to grab your attention with the most evocative, unconventional, and simplest effects. His music wasn't always ground-breaking, or challenging, but the key to his appeal was finding the right mood, which was like hitting a nerve that lay hidden in the space between the screen and audience.

2 Ennio Morricone- Italian composer and conductor
Morricone pinoeered the Western Film score with soundtracks for Sergio Leone's films. He created sensual Italian jazz-lounge grooves that painted a sparkling picture of life in a time of social revolution. Morricone favoured low-budget European art-house pictures, in which he could experiment with his rich sound palette.

3 Morricone has won two Grammy Awards and two Golden Globes.
He has been nominated for five Academy Awards for Best Music, Original Score in 1979–2001. He received the Academy Honorary Award in 2007 "for his magnificent and multifaceted contributions to the art of film music". Ennio Morricone Awards and Recognition.
