Roma Sinfonietta
Biography
The Roma Sinfonietta is strongly associated with performances and recordings of music by film score composer Ennio Morricone. The Roma Sinfonietta ("L'Orchestra Roma Sinfonietta") was founded in 1994. The group's current music director is cellist Luigi Lanzillotta; it has had various conductors. In 1994, the Roma Sinfonietta made its recording debut with a soundtrack album for the film Anni Ribelli. The following year, Morricone conducted the orchestra in a recording of his own Concerto Premio Rota. That marked the beginning of a long association between the orchestra and Morricone. In concert, the orchestra has hosted international-caliber guest artists, including cellist Yo-Yo Ma, with whom the group made the recordings Yo-Yo Ma Plays Ennio Morricone (2004) and Appassionato (2007). It returned in 2023 on the album Postcards from Italy: Italian Music for Film, with soprano saxophonist Marco Albonetti.
