Ennio Morricone Announces 60 Years of Music Tour

• 4th Jun 2015

Internationally renowned Italian film composer Ennio Morricone has announced that he will appear at The O2, London on Monday 16 February, as part of a large-scale world tour in January 2016, with a completely new programme to mark his 60-year Anniversary as a professional composer and conductor.

The announcement follows a hugely successful European arena tour which ended in Zagreb last April, and which saw the Maestro perform to over 150,000 audience members in 22 European cities. Across the continent the tour received standing ovations and overwhelming critical acclaim in the media.

Discussing his new forthcoming tour, Morricone said:

“Performing my work live in all these different cities for people of so many different ages and cultural backgrounds is an incredibly gratifying experience. Next year I will celebrate my professional career of 60 Years during which I composed over 600 works”.

“Next year I will perform a whole new program with new highlights, which I am already working on. Of course there will always be the classic pieces from the great Sergio Leone westerns and The Mission. But overall the experience will be different this time. I plan to include a suite for example with pieces of music, which I composed for 7 different movies which all won Oscars!”
