At the Teatro Verdi in Pordenone, Aterballetto performs Notte Morricone by Marcos Morau on the occasion of the International Mountain Day, as part of the Montagna Teatro Festival 2025.
I, Ennio Morricone, am dead,” wrote the composer before bidding farewell. His music, however, cannot die. Creators and artists never truly leave us; they remain, held alive and safe by memory itself. Notte Morricone is my gift — a devoted tribute to the beauty he gave to the world.
Notte Morricone unfolds in the twilight of an ordinary night in the life of a creative mind — alone and dazed before his sheets of paper, jotting down notes and envisioning melodies for films that do not yet exist, bringing stories back to life in the rarefied air of his room.
— Marcos Morau, Director and Choreographer
It is impossible to describe Notte Morricone — a masterful work that reaches the spectator in waves, enveloping them in emotion, capturing them in the memory of timeless melodies that have long outlived the images that inspired them. The choreography is equally enchanting — refined and deeply poetic, crafted with meticulous attention to detail: legs and necks seem jointless, bending and springing rhythmically like metronomes.
— Maria Luisa Buzzi, Danza&Danza
