  • ROME, ITALY - 30 MARCH 2015: Entrance to Cinecittà, a large film studio considered the hub of Italian cinema, in Rome, Italy, on March 30th 2015.<br />
<br />
Italy instated a special 25% tax credit for film productions in 2010. The industry then lobbied to remove the credit’s cap, and last July, Italy lifted its tax credit limit from €5 million per movie to €10 million per company per year. <br />
 <br />
Cinecittà, a large film studio in Rome, is considered the hub of Italian cinema. The studios were founded in 1937 by Benito Mussolini as part of a scheme to revive the Italian film industry. In the 1950s, the number of international productions being made here led to Rome being dubbed as the "Hollywood on the Tiber". In the 1950s, Cinecittà was the filming location for several large American film productions like Ben-Hur, and then became the studio most closely associated with Federico Fellini.<br />
After a period of near-bankruptcy, the Italian Government privatized Cinecittà in 1997, selling an 80% stake.<br />
<br />
Currently Ben-Hur and Zoolander 2 are booked into Cinecittà Studios.

  • ROME, ITALY - 29 OCTOBER 2020: Enrico Pieranunzi (70), pianist and composer, plays "Nuovo Cinema Paradiso" at the Forum Music Village (formerly called Ortophonic), the renowned recording studio founded by Ennio Morricone himself in 1970, here in Rome on October 29th 2020.<br />
<br />
Pieranunzi is the pianist who conveyed  the identity of Ennio Morricone in the strongest and most identifiable way, from the mid-‘70s onwards:<br />
he worked on some of Maestro’s masterpieces such as Once Upon a Time in America (1984) and Nuovo Cinema Paradiso (1988), but his touch is particularly recognizable in less-known and experimental pieces, such as Nevrosi nelle strade (from Autostop Rosso Sangue - 1978) or Incatenato (from La Gabbia - 1985), where his jazzy ability to improvise emerges the most.<br />
<br />
Ennio Morricone has been, without a doubt, themost important Italian artist of the last 60 years and possibly the most well-known film music composer of the 20th century. Behind the mainstream Morricone, hugely celebrated by critics and acclaimed by his audience, there is a hidden Morricone, a Morricone Segreto: an eccentric, underground genius who used his refined education to implant cultured materials in a daily, popular context. <br />
<br />
“Morricone Segreto” is a compilation explores what perhaps is the richest creative period of the Maestro, between the end of the 60s and the early 80s.<br />
<br />
The Morricone Segreto reunion is a special meeting with some of the key collaborators of the Maestro: the musician who originally played on the songs of the Morricone Segreto compilation.<br />
<br />
The sit-down took place in the rooms of the Forum Music Village (formerly called Ortophonic), the renowned recording studio founded by Morricone himself in 1970.

  • ROME, ITALY - 29 OCTOBER 2020: Enrico Pieranunzi (70), pianist and composer, plays "Nuovo Cinema Paradiso" at the Forum Music Village (formerly called Ortophonic), the renowned recording studio founded by Ennio Morricone himself in 1970, here in Rome on October 29th 2020.<br />
<br />
Pieranunzi is the pianist who conveyed  the identity of Ennio Morricone in the strongest and most identifiable way, from the mid-‘70s onwards:<br />
he worked on some of Maestro’s masterpieces such as Once Upon a Time in America (1984) and Nuovo Cinema Paradiso (1988), but his touch is particularly recognizable in less-known and experimental pieces, such as Nevrosi nelle strade (from Autostop Rosso Sangue - 1978) or Incatenato (from La Gabbia - 1985), where his jazzy ability to improvise emerges the most.<br />
<br />
Ennio Morricone has been, without a doubt, themost important Italian artist of the last 60 years and possibly the most well-known film music composer of the 20th century. Behind the mainstream Morricone, hugely celebrated by critics and acclaimed by his audience, there is a hidden Morricone, a Morricone Segreto: an eccentric, underground genius who used his refined education to implant cultured materials in a daily, popular context. <br />
<br />
“Morricone Segreto” is a compilation explores what perhaps is the richest creative period of the Maestro, between the end of the 60s and the early 80s.<br />
