@@erwan6186 Actually, my favorite movie of all time is The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Even with the anachronistic errors (guns are totally wrong for the period) it’s still an amazing movie. Even better if you have the deleted scenes.
As years pass, Morricone will be classified as a classical music genius. He never gets as much credit as he is due. This one excerpt is all the proof you need,
As a live video engineer I am impressed by the camera work and the use of POV and ROBO cameras. Sure a lot was done in the final post edit. But live they captured an awesome preperformance. I actually plan to see this if they ever do this series again!
For those of us of a certain age ~ myself now having made the journey 'round the Sun almost 60 times ~ can we just take a moment to acknowledge that, in our lifetime, we have been BEYOND graced to have our experience at the cinema enhanced by Signore Morricone and Mr John Williams? A century from now, people will listen to this music the way we do the works of Bach and Mozart...
I cannot find the words to justify the brilliance of the Danish symphony orchestra..only to thank each and every one of them for their musical perfection and keeping me and thousands of others entranced throughout this lockdown ..x
Agreed, John!! The DNSO is one of the best symphonies in the world!! These great musicians nail the film scores of Ennio Morricone every time!! Such a brilliant and perfect performance, indeed!! Greetings to you from Toronto, Canada!
@@stevehortongothlindreiss3983 100% Steve. I do have a music channel on YT but I won't display the URL here as others may interpret it as cheap spam. I have the DVD of the movie in my collection - and to reiterate I love this rendition and keep coming back.
Still remember being 17 (72 now)and seeing this movie for the first time in a movie theatre ,what a classic ,Henry fonda ,Charles bronson, Claudia cardinely and Jason robards
Perfect soundtrack for a perfect film. Ive seen the film so many times i know the scenes the individual themes are scored to. I'm going to have to go watch it again now.
Perfectly said. It has been impossible for me to listen to this series of Ennio Morricone music played by the DNSO without seeing the relevant scenes from the movies. I really believe that Clint Eastwood owes a great deal of his success to Ennio Morricone.
Wpw this music is so good, I taught pursuit training to young police officers ,in the 70s this may sound strange butt i would teach safely above all but in Dekalb co Georgia we had a lot of good times seeing what a 69 road runner could do ,my point was with music like this made my job easy while Spinning out of control,
Maestro Morricone definitely takes us to another time, another place. It's somewhere we've never been before but would like to revisit. The evidence of greatness is if an artist can move you deeply and change your perspective from apathy to vibrancy. Maestro Morricone does that without trying. This is not a labor of love by him, but pure love that flows from him. Thank you, sir. RIP in the arms of the Lord.
I live in those lonely places west of the Mississippi. It took an Italian to know what these haunting, desolate, beautiful places sound like to the human soul. I would love to go to Copenhagen to hear this beautiful group of people perform.
Ennio Morricone's music is simply magnificent. His music really made "The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly", which would not have been the same without it. Same for Once Upon a Time in The West, which had a better plot than TG, TB & TU. The music fit the movie perfectly. I marvel at his music every time I hear it.
I just watched the special features on the Blu-ray and there is a part where they talk about how Leone and Morricone had written all the music before any of the film was shot. So Leone was absolutely filming with this music in his head and knowing how he would cut the footage to go with it. Incredible results
"Spiel mir das Lied vom Tod" hat mich ein Leben lang begleitet. Aber jetzt mit 79 wird es real und vielleicht las ich es bei meiner Beerdigung spielen aber nur das Originale und nicht vom Band!!! ⚰️❤️👍

I recently discovered the Danish National Symphony Orchestra. What a gem.Brought back alot of memories of when I was a kid watching spaghetti westerns.The over all talent is second to none.Denmark you should be very proud.
I start listening repeatedly throughout the year and each time listen til the end and reflect back on the first few times seeing and loving the movie in my youth and at a different level now as I enjoy all the years made possible by God for me to be on his good green earth 🌎
Growing up in a lower middle class family without much means. Ennio Morricone’s music as a kid watching his epic films is what drew me to orchestral music, then the classical pieces. It’s a strange road but I still love his musical style. Thank you.
Couldn't understand the tears watching Once Upon a Time in the West until I realized, its the music. You can have your Mozart and your Brahms. You can take your Williams and your Zimmerman. Ennio Morricone, that is the real deal. How a bunch of Danes dug so deep into his heart and soul is a mystery. But thank God for that. Love it.
YES! The music matches the screenplay so well, and is so thematic. ENNIO puts you right there. It takes an entire movie to get to the final DUEL in this movie. And in that scene, the music awakens your every fibre of thought, mood, emotion.. It is a MASTERPIECE !
Not just the music but the entirety of the film itself and the incredible performances and the perfect pacing and the editing, not to even highlight the absolutely INCREDIBLE acting by one and all!!!
Funny thing about Ennio Morricone’s music ... appreciation of the work ages like a good wine. He did music for Mission to Mars (2000), which is the film’s redeeming quality given a mediocre script and original director walking out.
The movie and score was a masterpiece tribute to the old west. And golden boy Henry Fonda as one of the movie screens most despicable villains. “You brought two to many” amazingly gifted orchestra to replicate these scores with such accuracy
I will have to find the Henry Fonda interview, where he discussed his casting in this film. Director wanted the villain to have piercing blue eyes (Fonda trademark). It was one of the few roles where he got to play a true villain - of course his son Peter was filming “Easy Rider” in this same time period.
The music behind the BEST American Western movie ever made. The music reverberates, elevates, and immortalizes each key scene and the characters in it against a savage West where greed, revenge, violence, and quick death are the norm. The combination was unprecedented, and after nearly 60 years, the vision is still unsurpassed.
This not really an entirely american western movie, though. Lots of Italian talent, aka foreign, style much different from John Wayne and Hollywood. Wikipedia says that it has lots of references to american westerns :-) But certainly one of the BEST movies and BEST music indeed!
It was an Italian production, influenced and inspired by the all-pervasive American culture. The movie in turn influenced and inspired American filmmakers to come up with great and memorable movies like The Wild Bunch, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and The Unforgiven where the good, the bad, and the ugly all had stories worthy of telling and knowing.
It transcends genres, which I think many great works of art do. To my mind, it's a Wagnerian opera, complete with leitmotifs for each of the principal characters. And casting Henry Fonda as the BAD guy? GENIUS.
Actually, although the frontier could be brutal the excessive violence is a figment of the truth. Dime novels created the notion that the west was lawless which was propagated by western films. Most settlers were relatively religious folk who sought new beginnings and opportunities in life. The violence occurred but was rare.
lol Her name is Tuva Semmingsen, not "Wa wa woman" ;D You should listen to their "Kill Bill: Bang Bang My Baby Shot me Down", she sings in that one as well. :)
This orchestra is not afraid to use alternate or lesser know instruments in order to achieve the sound they deem necessary. All of their conductors are phenomenal, but this young lady here is fearless when it comes to alternate sounds. The chorus is superb, the instrumentalists are just off the charts great, and Tuva is. . . .Tuva. How can one even describe her; I have no idea why she is not better recognized, considering what she does and how she does it. Actually, that goes for the entire group; they’re all superb. I just love this orchestra and am in absolute awe of each and everyone of them. Humongous thumbs up!
It's the original instumentation which the italian composer (Ennio Morricone, 1928-2020) wrote it for. In the early 60's, he was the first one who started to use "weird" instruments and mouth-made sounds with the film-orchestra. Others later copied that idea from him!
@@mozambique9113 The TH-cam Channel has it listed as the “Danish National Symphony Orchestra.” Are you sure it’s just a band? They certainly sound and look like a symphony and not just a band.
Que de beauté : l’orchestre, les choristes, les femmes et la musique d’Ennio Morricone gravée à jamais dans l’intemporalité. Merci Ennio pour ces cadeaux fait à l’humanité.
For some reason...when a great orchestra plays iconic tunes it seems to highlight just how brilliant & original the music is. It's amazing how much this piece meanders along - you can feel an epic story unfold, musically.
I'm a huge Ennio Morricone fan, and listening to this I think Morricone would be proud that the Danish National Symphony Orchestra's rendition of his works are true to its core. And Tuva Semmingsen is just simply fantastic!
Absolutamente de acuerdo, toda una suerte que está orquesta haya elegido esta maravillosa música de Morricone. Ejecución perfecta, con Tuva Semmingsen sublime.
This video is a high quality production. Not only it brings across Morricone's wonderful music excellently but also cut and camera is virtually perfect. Applause for the orchestra and the film team.
Well, this symphony orchestra is part of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation. The Danish equivalent of the British BBC. Surely they are able to make good video productions.
The great man has passed away today. He was a titan that spanned the world of film music. He brought us some of THE most iconic music we have ever been privileged to hear. His music defined a whole genre of film making. For me, this plaintive piece of music feels very fitting at this time. Riposo in pace Maestro. Il tuo nome entrerà per l'eternità nel pantheon dei grandi della musica..x
I would love to hear Tuva's solo when the Oscars do their yearly tribute to those in the film industry who departed in 2020---including Maestro Morricone. Wow. Just...wow.
If this is the best movie score, then why is it the 5th most popular despite having the same posted date on TH-cam as the 4 more popular scores? 1) The Good, The Bad and The Ugly - 126.7 million views. 2) The Godfather - 60.4 million views. 3) For a Few Dollars More - 45.6 million views. 4) A Fistful of Dollars - 27.0 million views. 5) Once Upon a Time in the West - 18.3 million views.
@@Dabhach1 Those movies are so beautifully shot it's hard to believe how old they are, coupled with Morricone's music they became truly iconic, really a work of two geniuses combined, it's a shame Leone passed away as he was leaving the western behind to explore new themes, who knows what other masterpiece he could've made
RIP Ennio Morricone - this particular theme always makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up - this is probably the best rendition I've ever heard of it - bravo
I haven't heard many orchestras playing. But the performance by this one I guess can hardly be bettered. The have literally recreated the original. Feels as though you are in the scene!
Was born in 1973 but after seeing the movie, was really amazed by the genius of this music, which incorporated a hopeless scene harmonica to an unforgettable classic. listening 2024
A Danish ochestra, conducted by a woman from Hawaii, plays a soundtrack, song by an Norwegian lady, written by an Italian man, to an american western...Brilliant...edited:..this is an Italian western filmed in Spain..I am sorry if my comment made anyone upset, and forced you to write anything hatefull, as this was certainly not my intention..peace on you all
@@walterhughes5265 The only one talking about sex or race is you...why do you drag this awesome piece of music down with such stupid comments...shame in you
In my will, I will specify that the theme of "Once Upon a Time in the West" plays at my funeral. It is the most beautiful piece of music I have ever heard.
From one of the starkest, dusty dirty and grimiest portrayals of life and death in an old West frontier town, came one of the most soaring heartbreakingly beautiful score of music ever put to film. Thank you Ennio for your genius and thank you Danish National Symphony company for recreating it perfectly.
The Danish National Symphony Orchestra was considered the first in the world. The maestro is creative and amazing, as is the entire band. I love them all and thank you all. A thousand thanks and thanks to the Danish National Symphony Orchestra.
How could anyone vote thumbs down on this?? This is a brilliant piece. A real symphony orchestra gem. Excellent and haunting. Commemorates one of the best Westerns ever.
i am so glad to have lived during ennio morricone time he was a titan of music.

If a person hears this and doens't feel anything, there must be something very wrong with him/her... This is perfect, and the world today is saying goodbye to a legend, that could touch our souls with beautiful songs. Immortal through his music. RIP E. Morricone - 7/6/2020.
I can’t believe this movie is 53 years old. My father and I were huge western fans and we never missed the Saturday afternoon matinees. I was real excited to see this because I knew it was directed by Sergio Leone.
My God, the Mezzosoprano nails it, the beauty of the song is totally done justice by her beautiful voice. I can see the movie scene clearly in my mind when she sings. This Danish orchestra is amazing. Also, gotta say it - that is the most gorgeous conductor I have ever seen
Absolutely fantastic music. I saw this movie in Germany in1970 when I was in the Army--fell in love with the movie and the music. Then went to Vietnam and, as we sat in bunkers, they played the last part of the score with the lady singing as the Armed Forces Radio signed off at midnight. Incredible times, incredible memories. . . ., for all the bad and unfortunate things people do, we can still make music like this. . .,
@@pzkw6759 Different video, why mention it in the comments for this video? At least state in your comment that you are referencing a different video, we are not mind readers.
As a child I loved this music , I had Gabriel’s oboe playing at our wedding when my wife walked towards me . I wanted once upon a time in the west but my wife said it was to emotional . I will have it played at my funeral as the last song in my life . Thank you Mr Morricone 🙏
At 75 years of age I have seen " Once upon a Time in the West" many...many times since its first release. Just listening to the music I can picture in my mind every movie scene of this movie. One of the very best westerns ever made. Bar none!!

Charles Bronson is watching this and smiling from up in heaven 😢🥹
You’re 2/3 right, he’s smiling up from somewhere alright but it isn’t heaven. Still smiling though. One tough mother.
Loved his character, Harmonica, in this movie.
He played a character who played his own theme tune on a harmonica. How cool is that?!
Only one way to find out if this is true.
Henry Fonda, Claudia Cardinale, and Jason Robard are right there, listening with Bronson.
I hope Ennio Morricone is somewhere up in heaven listing to his magnificent music being played so beautifully
You bet he is, and with a smile of approval

It seems the singer uses a light vibrato. It results different to other interpretations that use a flat voice.
Great stuff
Maestro Morricone definitely takes us to another time, another place. It's somewhere we've never been before but would like to revisit.

Sometimes I think that the movie was just made to celebrate the music … amazing how beautiful and expressive it is.

Same for Once Upon a Time in The West, which had a better plot than TG, TB & TU. The music fit the movie perfectly. I marvel at his music every time I hear it.
The music was written long before a single line of script so you are correct
I just watched the special features on the Blu-ray and there is a part where they talk about how Leone and Morricone had written all the music before any of the film was shot. So Leone was absolutely filming with this music in his head and knowing how he would cut the footage to go with it. Incredible results
The greatest movie score of all time. And the greatest western of all time.
I agree,but I also have a soft spot for the Nobody films (and the Dollar Trilogy,of course).
Watched this movie when I was a young boy in Italy.
Imprinted in my mind forever. I now have the CD.

The movie and score was a masterpiece tribute to the old west. And golden boy Henry Fonda as one of the movie screens most despicable villains. “You brought two to many” amazingly gifted orchestra to replicate these scores with such accuracy
I will have to find the Henry Fonda interview, where he discussed his casting in this film. Director wanted the villain to have piercing blue eyes (Fonda trademark).
It was one of the few roles where he got to play a true villain - of course his son Peter was filming “Easy Rider” in this same time period.
This movie was the Greatest Western Ever Made, IMHO.
I'll second that. Saw the movie at the drive in Australia probably 40 years ago... great western, even greater soundtrack .

You're not wrong.
The music behind the BEST American Western movie ever made. The music reverberates, elevates, and immortalizes each key scene and the characters in it against a savage West where greed, revenge, violence, and quick death are the norm. The combination was unprecedented, and after nearly 60 years, the vision is still unsurpassed.
It is well said. Accurate. Good day.
This not really an entirely american western movie, though. Lots of Italian talent, aka foreign, style much different from John Wayne and Hollywood. Wikipedia says that it has lots of references to american westerns :-) But certainly one of the BEST movies and BEST music indeed!
It was an Italian production, influenced and inspired by the all-pervasive American culture. The movie in turn influenced and inspired American filmmakers to come up with great and memorable movies like The Wild Bunch, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, and The Unforgiven where the good, the bad, and the ugly all had stories worthy of telling and knowing.
It transcends genres, which I think many great works of art do. To my mind, it's a Wagnerian opera, complete with leitmotifs for each of the principal characters. And casting Henry Fonda as the BAD guy? GENIUS.
Actually, although the frontier could be brutal the excessive violence is a figment of the truth. Dime novels created the notion that the west was lawless which was propagated by western films. Most settlers were relatively religious folk who sought new beginnings and opportunities in life. The violence occurred but was rare.
I’m so happy for the wa wa woman finally getting a chance to show off her AMAZING voice
lol Her name is Tuva Semmingsen, not "Wa wa woman" ;D
You should listen to their "Kill Bill: Bang Bang My Baby Shot me Down", she sings in that one as well. :)
Soprano Tuva was good ....but octave lower than the original who was better.
She worked for Lars Von Trier on the Antichrist intro
Non e' lei la donna che cantava in origine ^^ -------------------> Soprano Italiana!!!^^
@@Ameba61 Sì, lo so che!
Ennio go easy, here are millions of people who love your music. Rest now.
Milano Walter 1200 hapless wonders need a musical education.
Saudoso Ennio morricone. Descanse em paz
I never knew a harmonica could sound so amazing.
It was so haunting and beautiful.
This orchestra is not afraid to use alternate or lesser know instruments in order to achieve the sound they deem necessary. All of their conductors are phenomenal, but this young lady here is fearless when it comes to alternate sounds. The chorus is superb, the instrumentalists are just off the charts great, and Tuva is. . . .Tuva. How can one even describe her; I have no idea why she is not better recognized, considering what she does and how she does it. Actually, that goes for the entire group; they’re all superb. I just love this orchestra and am in absolute awe of each and everyone of them. Humongous thumbs up!
It's the original instumentation which the italian composer (Ennio Morricone, 1928-2020) wrote it for. In the early 60's, he was the first one who started to use "weird" instruments and mouth-made sounds with the film-orchestra. Others later copied that idea from him!
The ragged harmonica note just here and there and the dominating bass guitar, and then full orchestra. I think this song could seduce me. A lot.
Tuva is half human half goddess.
Its a national band
@@mozambique9113 The TH-cam Channel has it listed as the “Danish National Symphony Orchestra.” Are you sure it’s just a band? They certainly sound and look like a symphony and not just a band.
"Like" button is not enough for me to express how much I love this Danish presentation.
Maestro you are dead, but your music compositions will be immortal. Thank you Morricone!!
You are only truly dead, when you are forgotten.
Que de beauté : l’orchestre, les choristes, les femmes et la musique d’Ennio Morricone gravée à jamais dans l’intemporalité. Merci Ennio pour ces cadeaux fait à l’humanité.
For some reason...when a great orchestra plays iconic tunes it seems to highlight just how brilliant & original the music is. It's amazing how much this piece meanders along - you can feel an epic story unfold, musically.
ليس كل شيء
I'm a huge Ennio Morricone fan, and listening to this I think Morricone would be proud that the Danish National Symphony Orchestra's rendition of his works are true to its core. And Tuva Semmingsen is just simply fantastic!
Absolutamente de acuerdo, toda una suerte que está orquesta haya elegido esta maravillosa música de Morricone. Ejecución perfecta, con Tuva Semmingsen sublime.
Ya right , Never forget NINO ROTA!!!
The score is that great that it makes almost every rendition sound amazing. This one is actually not that good.
As a father I try to educate my son to the best of my ability. Watching once upon a time with my boy was one of those days.
And you made a great Job man!!!!!😉
Parenting done right. Hell yes!
my father did the same thing :D
As did mine. In 1968. Miss him so.
Good job. How old is your son?
Humanity as a whole best achievement has been it's ability to create music like this.
This video is a high quality production. Not only it brings across Morricone's wonderful music excellently but also cut and camera is virtually perfect. Applause for the orchestra and the film team.
... and the sound production team! The sound recording is impeccable!
Magic is real. Majestic.
Well, this symphony orchestra is part of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation. The Danish equivalent of the British BBC. Surely they are able to make good video productions.
Wonderful, . Gostei muito.
A well-deserved compliment.
The great man has passed away today. He was a titan that spanned the world of film music. He brought us some of THE most iconic music we have ever been privileged to hear. His music defined a whole genre of film making. For me, this plaintive piece of music feels very fitting at this time. Riposo in pace Maestro. Il tuo nome entrerà per l'eternità nel pantheon dei grandi della musica..x
Bellissime parole!!!! Un abbraccio dall'Italia!!!!😊❤
Well said!!!!
I remember the first time I heard "Man With a Harmonica" on the radio. I still get chills to this day.
Grande maestro Ennio R.I.P.
I would love to hear Tuva's solo when the Oscars do their yearly tribute to those in the film industry who departed in 2020---including Maestro Morricone. Wow. Just...wow.
Tuva's voice is incredible and Sarah Hicks is, in my opinion, a world class conductor. She did an amazing job bringing this composition together.
Ah so that’s her name , did a great job the conductor that is.
This song reminds me of my life, the tender years, happy times, sad times and life in general🙏❤
Best Movie Score..they did an amazing job. Once Upon a Time is the West is one of my favorite movies.
If this is the best movie score, then why is it the 5th most popular despite having the same posted date on TH-cam as the 4 more popular scores?
1) The Good, The Bad and The Ugly - 126.7 million views.
2) The Godfather - 60.4 million views.
3) For a Few Dollars More - 45.6 million views.
4) A Fistful of Dollars - 27.0 million views.
5) Once Upon a Time in the West - 18.3 million views.
If they made this film again in a 100 years time they can’t make it sound like his . Thank you Mr Morricone 🙏
Re-listening....re-crying....is beautiful ❤
I had this melody in head about 37-37 years and now i got it!
Without the music of Ennio Morricone the world would be an empty place..
So would Sergio Leone's movies.
@@Dabhach1 Those movies are so beautifully shot it's hard to believe how old they are, coupled with Morricone's music they became truly iconic, really a work of two geniuses combined, it's a shame Leone passed away as he was leaving the western behind to explore new themes, who knows what other masterpiece he could've made
How can someone not listen to this again and again.
People who are stupid don't listen to such a masterpiece.
Same with the Good the Bad and the Ugly....which I am requesting to be played at my Funeral.... Blessings
Daily feeding with the positive vibes of this orchestra. Awesome !
Bro you made my wish of 'Liking an Indian's comment in an Ennio Morricone's music video in youtube' come true by commenting. :)
Hypnotic indeed
RIP Ennio Morricone - this particular theme always makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up - this is probably the best rendition I've ever heard of it - bravo
I haven't heard many orchestras playing. But the performance by this one I guess can hardly be bettered. The have literally recreated the original. Feels as though you are in the scene!
I have heard a lot of versions of this but this is my personal favorite! RIP Ennio
The places of "once upon a time in the west " are mostly tourist attraction ghost towns now . Thank God
Was born in 1973 but after seeing the movie, was really amazed by the genius of this music, which incorporated a hopeless scene harmonica to an unforgettable classic. listening 2024
A Danish ochestra, conducted by a woman from Hawaii, plays a soundtrack, song by an Norwegian lady, written by an Italian man, to an american western...Brilliant...edited:..this is an Italian western filmed in Spain..I am sorry if my comment made anyone upset, and forced you to write anything hatefull, as this was certainly not my intention..peace on you all
Race race race can we just listen to the music
@@walterhughes5265 Wtf are you talking about...shut up!
Actually Italian western with American leading actors, rest of the cast was Italian so was the director.
@@SB-sg4sg i dont care about anyones race or sex i only care about if they make something good
@@walterhughes5265 The only one talking about sex or race is you...why do you drag this awesome piece of music down with such stupid comments...shame in you
In my will, I will specify that the theme of "Once Upon a Time in the West" plays at my funeral. It is the most beautiful piece of music I have ever heard.
actually, philippe said that...
I told my wife the same....please play at my funeral.
Watching this for the 40th time and it suddenly hit me, this is perfection.
Absolutely
OH MAN, I JUST CAN'T STOP LOVING THIS "DANISH ORCHESTRA". GIVING THE MUSIC A TOTALLY DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE AND MEANING. ❤❤❤❤❤
I think their version is so much more vibrant and moving than the original. Love this orchestra!
From one of the starkest, dusty dirty and grimiest portrayals of life and death in an old West frontier town, came one of the most soaring heartbreakingly beautiful score of music ever put to film. Thank you Ennio for your genius and thank you Danish National Symphony company for recreating it perfectly.
Seconded.
Perfectly.
........very well said from a person who cannot carry a tune in a water bucket----but I love it !
I could not listen to no other.
@@mataranka1 You could and should otherwise you'd be missing out on other pieces of musical geniuses from the past.
The Danish National Symphony Orchestra was considered the first in the world. The maestro is creative and amazing, as is the entire band. I love them all and thank you all. A thousand thanks and thanks to the Danish National Symphony Orchestra.
The guy with the harmonica waited his whole life to get this gig.
You should hear him playing the Sax. Check out "Taxi Driver" with the same orchestra
Think he got this wrong. He should had seen the movie. He should had expressing the desperation exhalation of death, not some notes.
U don't knw that guy? Anyway, you waited your whole life to make this comment...
Looool that was funny 😅
It was well worth waiting all my life to hear him play.
1970 was the first time I saw this movie, and I've seen it many times since.. this music is magic.
Wow, a Danish orchestra, music by an Italian, a Japanese conductor, talk about everyone getting together to play magical music, wonderful ❤
The Danish national symphony orchestra, a shining star in the world of reality, genuine music congratulations Denmark 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
You're dead, but your music lives forever Ennio Morricone ..
This is sublime. I come back to watch this at least once a month
Probably the best orchestra in the world !
I knew she could do more than just wa-wa-waa....simply brilliant.
And she's wearing a revolver earring, so be sure to bring an extra horse for her...
th-cam.com/video/bdZkFXiiio8/w-d-xo.html
Yes she whistled
Tuva is the best mezzo soprano I've ever heard! Perfect pitch! What a woman!
Im in tears.
How could anyone vote thumbs down on this?? This is a brilliant piece. A real symphony orchestra gem. Excellent and haunting. Commemorates one of the best Westerns ever.
What about the Wild Bunch!?
It doesn't matter how great something is, there is always a turd in his mothers basement somewhere to vote it thumbs down.
hedunlap likely a schtrumpf supporter ew!!!
Brian Buday more likely it’s a liberal cry baby piece of shit.
Some real psychopaths out there 🤪
They don't make movies and music like this anymore, I listened to every one of these westerns ..memories come to life.
I could listen to this song a thousand times and not get sick of it. Beautiful.
Angelic!
Remembering a legend. Never been so affected by the death of someone I never met before
i am so glad to have lived during ennio morricone time he was a titan of music.
If a person hears this and doens't feel anything, there must be something very wrong with him/her... This is perfect, and the world today is saying goodbye to a legend, that could touch our souls with beautiful songs. Immortal through his music. RIP E. Morricone - 7/6/2020.
One of my favorite cowboy movies of all time. Every song hits my heart differently. Thank you so much
I can’t believe this movie is 53 years old. My father and I were huge western fans and we never missed the Saturday afternoon matinees. I was real excited to see this because I knew it was directed by Sergio Leone.
My mom got me into westerns when I was a kid. Now I'm in my 40s and she's in her 70s and we still watch them together. It's a wonderful thing.
My God, the Mezzosoprano nails it, the beauty of the song is totally done justice by her beautiful voice. I can see the movie scene clearly in my mind when she sings.
This Danish orchestra is amazing. Also, gotta say it - that is the most gorgeous conductor I have ever seen
don't get out much, do you?
One of my favorite performances
She is
Her name is Sarah Hicks
@@knathraq Sarah Hicks is the conductor. Tuva Semmingsen is the mezzo soprano.
Absolutely fantastic music. I saw this movie in Germany in1970 when I was in the Army--fell in love with the movie and the music. Then went to Vietnam and, as we sat in bunkers, they played the last part of the score with the lady singing as the Armed Forces Radio signed off at midnight. Incredible times, incredible memories. . . ., for all the bad and unfortunate things people do, we can still make music like this. . .,
Thank you for sharing your story,music reaches every place in the world and can be the light in the darkness in some moments.

Ennio was an amazing composer! ❤
Possibly the best music ever composed for a western , brilliant and heart breaking together.
So, how many emotions will your soundtrack evoke?
Ennio: Yes.
What do you mean "possibly"?
One of the greatestest orchestral performances of my lifetime. Bravo!
Addio maestro. You've just walked into immortality...
I love this comment.
I attended this concert. It was absolutely breathtaking. ❤
The woman who does the whistling did this song with so much passion, you could feel it
Whistling?

As a child I loved this music , I had Gabriel’s oboe playing at our wedding when my wife walked towards me . I wanted once upon a time in the west but my wife said it was to emotional . I will have it played at my funeral as the last song in my life . Thank you Mr Morricone 🙏
At 75 years of age I have seen " Once upon a Time in the West" many...many times since its first release. Just listening to the music I can picture in my mind every movie scene of this movie. One of the very best westerns ever made. Bar none!!
RIP, Ennio Morricone, who has left us today, July 06, 2020.
