Ennio Morricone needs no introduction, the late maestro had composed over 500 movies in his long career after his passing in 2020. His filmography is exhaustive, but many stand out as simply brilliant, The Mission is one of those scores. Released in 1986 and directed by Roland Joffe, Robert De Niro & Jeremy Irons head the lead cast and Morricone’s beautiful and uplifting score never fails to impress. Released only as a 35 minute LP & CD many years ago, it was needing an expansion to really provide his incredible work on this movie. This 2CD complete edition now restores the missing cues and encapsulates what Ennio Morricone had written for this truly wonderful movie from the greatest period of movies, the 80`s.
