The Italian musician, who is credited for his work on more than 400 films and TV shows, died on Monday, July 6, at the Campus Bio-Medico in Rome, a week after suffering a fall in which he broke his femur.
His death was confirmed by his lawyer, Giorgio Assumma, who also disclosed that Morricone requested a private funeral.
Morricone began his career as a trumpet player before switching to film composition in 1961.
He created music for more than 70 award-winning movies, including “Once Upon a Time in the West ” and “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” which earned him a spot in the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2009. He also won an Academy Award for his soundtrack for Quentin Tarantino’s “The Hateful Eight” in 2016.
More than 700 people have been arrested in Britain and tens of millions of pounds have been seized after the police infiltrated a top secret communications system used by criminal gangs.
It’s being called the biggest and most significant law-enforcement operation ever carried out in the UK. The gangs were using a device that looks like a normal mobile phone.
But each one costs up to £3,000 and they were used by high-level criminals to talk to each other.
