  • "Once Upon a Time in the West" is a fabulous soundtrack composed by Ennio Morricone, from the "Once Upon a Time in the West" western film of the same name directed by Sergio Leone, released in 1968. The film score is one of the top 5 best-selling original instrumental scores in the world today, and sold about 10 million copies worldwide.
    I can understand why. It's a real masterpiece. I have heard a couple of superb versions on RUclips, namely by Ernst (BurnsErnst) and Dave (Trapanner) that are inspiring.
    Here is my version using a super backing track by Pete Korving.

    I hope you like it. Dave

    This is my favorite music of all time. I heard this music fifty years ago for the first time when I was 18 years old staying in a friend's apartment un Paris aline by myself. Everytime I heard and/or listened to this music, tears always ran down from eyes. The music was beautiful and also as sad the movie itself.

    It takes a lot of years to get to the point where you can play so simply. Every note he plays is like a sonic pearl. Young guitarists often think they are great because they can play a zillion notes a second.

    • @DwightMS1

      That's so true. Playing a musical instrument isn't an athletic activity. Above all else, it has to sound good.

    • @drdel76
      @drdel76 4 года назад +3

      It’s what I call “musicality versus musicagility”. Many of today’s speed pickers have no musicality and could not play a tuneful melody on request. Take Duane Eddy: His mastery of timing and touch has had many guitar stars admitting they cannot reproduce his sound despite the apparent simplicity of the picking.

    • @jayluiz9709

    I've been sitting here tonight.Listening to your music and this one song..Well to be honest most of your songs some of the notes that you hit makes my heart skip beats, not a beat, but beats 😮. I don't know what it is about your music But.The Way you play it, but that's what it does to me, and that tells me that you are a professional.You got your heart into it. Thank you, Dave. What a difference a dave makes.
    God bless you and your lovely family.Have a good evening, honey. Good night ❤❤😊
    Judy.
    ps: (When you play, I could see you put your heart and so into it. And that's why your music is so pure.)

    When I heard your version and Dave's version, I knew I had to do it.
    It is such a hauntingly beautiful tune.
    I found it much harder to play than I expected.
    This timing is difficult and a lot of sustain is needed.
    But I am very pleased with the result.
    May thanks for the inspiration and lovely comment.
    Take care
