In the framework of the ITALIAN FESTIVAL, the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal, thanks to the support of the Italian Cultural Institute of Montreal, presents: THE PINES OF ROME & FAMOUS ITALIAN FILM SOUNDTRACKS.
What do the movies The Godfather, La Dolce Vita and Once Upon a Time in the West have in common? Their soundtracks were written by two of the most renowned composers in the history of film: Ennio Morricone and Nino Rota. Performed on the organ, these popular favorites will join forces with two of Respighi’s symphonic poems to zip you straight to the heart of Rome.
