A Pure Formality

Together they achieved great success in Italian and international cinema with films such as Cinema Paradiso, Stanno Tutti Bene, The Legend Of 1900, Malena and The Best Offer, among others.

El Greco
Quartet Records, in collaboration with GDM and Universal Music Publishing, presents a remastered reissue of one of Ennio Morricone’s most celebrated collaborations with Luciano Salce, with whom Morricone maintained a loyal collaboration at the beginning of his career, from Il Federale, his very first film score, through La Cuccagna, Slalom and Come Imparai ad Amare le Donne. El Greco (1966) is a romantic drama set in 16th-century Spain, where the famed Greek painter El Greco journeys to Toledo t…
Bluebeard
With Bluebeard (1972), Ennio Morricone explores the gothic absurdity of Edward Dmytryk’s erotic thriller through a score oscillating between melancholy, parody, and psychological unease. By blending chamber restraint and baroque flamboyance, Morricone transforms the infamous tale into a study of decadence, control, and the seductions of death.
Le Trio Infernal
Composed by Ennio Morricone for Francis Girod’s 1974 film Le Trio Infernal, this score fuses elegance and moral decay in dazzling contrast. Through waltzes, grotesque marches, and ironic chanson motifs, Morricone mirrors the film’s mordant humor and gothic perversity, crafting one of his most caustically inventive European soundtracks.
Per le Antiche Scale
In Per le Antiche Scale, Ennio Morricone sculpts a haunting and cerebral score for Mauro Bolognini’s 1975 psychological drama. Through mournful strings, dissonant gestures, and lyrical fragments, Morricone captures the fragile border between reason and madness, crafting one of his most introspective and emotionally complex film soundtracks.
La Disubbidienza
With La Disubbidienza, Ennio Morricone crafts an austere and sensual soundscape for Aldo Lado’s 1981 film. The score balances chamber intimacy and languid melodies, exploring moral tension through sparse orchestration and unexpected harmonic turns. It’s a work where desire and restraint coexist in fragile, hypnotic equilibrium.
Tacones Lejanos (Original Soundtrack)
Framed by Almodóvar’s saturated, performative world, Ryuichi Sakamoto’s score for Tacones Lejanos (High Heels), newly reissued by Quartet Records, layers melancholy minimalism and luminous melodrama, offering ornament rather than excess, with bolero and chanson threading through Sakamoto’s reflective atmospheres. The soundtrack’s architecture is subtle, emotionally surgical, quietly powerful in its dialogue with Luz Casal’s iconic voice.
Copkiller (Original Soundtrack)
Morricone's elusive 1983 score emerges remastered from original tapes. Featuring Johnny Rotten and Harvey Keitel, this psychedelic, percussion-heavy crime thriller soundtrack anticipates industrial music aesthetics while showcasing the composer's urban paranoia mastery. A crucial missing link in his evolution.

Questa Specie D'Amore (Original Soundtrack)
Ennio Morricone's subversive 1970 masterpiece finally emerges in full stereo after 55 years. This restored edition of Indagine su un Cittadino al di Sopra di Ogni Sospetto reveals the composer's deliberately "imperfect" instrumentation—out-of-tune piano, mandolin, synthesizer—as radical social commentary. Essential archival triumph.
Queimada

The film tells the sto…
