Ennio Morricone, "Gabriel's Oboe"

The epic movie The Mission, was filmed only 200 miles from my home in Asuncion. The place is the world renowned Iguaçu Falls (Cataratas del Iguaçu).
Ennio Morricone is a contemporary musical giant. He possesses the musical knowledge and depth of heart and soul to make the listener shiver with some of his musical phrases. I cannot think of a world without Gabriel's Oboe, it is simply too perfect not to be a part of creation. Italian composer Ennio Morricone is the man responsible for discovering the work and pass it to the rest of us to  enjoy and give thanks. I often compare composers to Christopher Columbus. America had always been there, it only needed someone to discover it at a given moment in time. I cannot think of a world without Gabriel's Oboe. I have heard many transcriptions of this amazing work. I heard it played on the Cello, Trumpet, Orchestra and I simply had to write my own version for the classical guitar. I hope you enjoy it. S.D.G.
