Influences of western music by Dimitri Tiomkin in the spaghetti western
Journal Title: UcoArte. Revista de Teoría e Historia del Arte - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
The music of the spaghetti western has a strong personality, shaped by certain intrinsic elements at the time of its moment of creation and genre. Its main representative composer is Ennio Morricone. Given the decline of American westerns in the sixties, some of its formal and musical features were revolutionary. This was due to the abandonment of the dominant trend, imposed by the Americans Jerome Moross and Elmer Bernstein. But a thorough analysis of the history of western music reveals that some new elements considered already existed in the American western of the fifties, particularly in the compositions of Dimitri Tiomkin. To the study of these aspects is dedicated this work, where American precedents and examples of their use in Italy are provided.
