Ennio Morricone was an Oscar-winning composer of movie soundtracks whose iconic music was the backdrop to films including “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.”The Italian-born Morricone was known best by many for the soundtracks he composed for Sergio Leon’s spaghetti Westerns: “A Fistful of Dollars” (1964), “For a Few Dollars More” (1965), “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly” (1966), and the director’s later films.
