Ennio Morricone - The Mission
Review by Kalim Ur Rehman
Ennio Morricone's album "The Mission" is a masterpiece of orchestral music. Released in 1986, this album features some of Morricone's most memorable and emotive compositions. The album's opening track, "On Earth as It Is in Heaven," sets the tone for the rest of the album, with its soaring choral vocals and lush orchestration.
Throughout the album, Morricone blends classical and traditional South American music to create a unique and powerful sound. The haunting "Gabriel's Oboe" showcases a beautiful melody played on the oboe, while "Falls" features the sounds of cascading waterfalls and birdsong.
The album's title track, "The Mission," is an epic composition that builds to a dramatic climax, featuring the London Philharmonic Orchestra and the Choir of the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields. The album concludes with the poignant "On Earth as It Is in Heaven (Finale)," bringing the listener full circle.
