The End - the Classic Film Obituary thread 2017 [CLOSED]

Composer Armando Sciascia has died at the age of 97. Sciascia was an excellent musician who released records with his orchestra and ran his own recording company in Italy for many years. He composed music for films, documentaries and television series, forming a strong partnership with filmmaker Renzo Russo in the 1960s. His textural pieces became increasingly disorientating in the 1970s which led to the creation of extraordinary works like 'Sea Fantasy' (1972) and 'Violin Reactions' (1974). Sciascia later moved to America, settling in Trumbull, Connecticut where he saw out his final days. 

Thanks for the music.


Armando Sciascia Rest in Peace
