Monday Music: Ennio Morricone - The Mission Main Theme

The remarkable main theme from a remarkable musical score for the remarkable movie, The Mission.

(Written and conducted by the remarkable Ennio Morricone)

Monday Music: Gabriel's Oboe

The Mission is definitely on my top ten list of all time favorite films.  Ennio Morricone composed the soundtrack, and "Gabriel's Oboe," is the main theme for that 1986 film. Here it is performed by Yo Yo Ma from his 2004 album, Yo-Yo Ma Plays Ennio Morricone.
