A 40-piece orchestra and a 100-voice choir: the concert dedicated to Oscar-winning composer Ennio Morricone!
"Tribute to Morricone: Film History" has been a resounding success throughout Italy and returns to the TAM Teatro Arcimboldi in Milan. The show retraces the key moments in the Maestro's career, from his early collaborations with Sergio Leone to his Hollywood scores, which established the Italian composer as a global icon and earned him a star on the Walk of Fame. In addition to a full orchestra, the show also features over 100 choristers from the Ensemble Vocale Ambrosiano, I Musici Cantori di Milano, and the Coro Carducci, conducted by Mauro Penacca.
The show will not only offer a live performance of the Maestro's music, but also—through video content—a historical reminder of his creations and all of Morricone's prestigious collaborations with the biggest names in international cinema.

Teatro degli Arcimboldi di Milano
The Teatro degli Arcimboldi is a theatre and opera house in Milan which was built over a twenty-seven month period in anticipation of the closure and subsequent nearly three-year long renovation of Milan's La Scala opera house in December 2001. It is located 4.5 miles from the city centre in an abandoned Pirelli tire factory, in an area known as Bicocca.[1]
Designed by Vittorio Gregotti working with architects Mario Botta and Elisabetta Fabbri, the fan-shaped 2,375 seat auditorium, created on two levels, was planned to allow for the continuation of La Scala's 2001/2002 opera season and it was inaugurated with a performance of Verdi's La traviata on 19 January 2002.
An unfortunate accident closed the theatre for seventeen days in February 2001, but it reopened and became the La Scala company's venue until the renovated opera house reopened on its traditional day, 7 December, in 2004.
Performances of many different types of music are still given at the Arcimboldi.
