Yo-Yo Ma – Plays Ennio Morricone (Numbered Yellow Vinyl 2LP)

Yo-Yo Ma Plays Ennio Morricone is a 2004 album of recordings from Morricone’s various film scores by brilliant cellist Yo-Yo Ma and Ennio Morricone. The album was recorded with the Roma Sinfonietta Orchestra and Gilda Buttà on piano. Morricone functioned as orchestrator, conductor and producer. The album stayed 105 weeks on the Billboard Top Classical Albums.

Yo-Yo Ma Plays Ennio Morricone positively diverges from most of the other interpretation albums in its collaborative aspect: the music’s original creator, Morricone, had as much to do with this album as did Ma and his creative team.

Yo-Yo Ma Plays Ennio Morricone is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on translucent yellow coloured vinyl.
