Nino Rota enhances the dreamy proceedings of Federico Fellini's 1963 masterpiece 8 ½ with a music hall mélange of jazz, classical, lounge, and circus music. Rota composed a glorious mix of operatic interludes, cabaret swing, polka romps, and organ combo ditties -- often in the space of one number. Essential soundtrack. Limited edition of 500 copies.

The Nino Rota soundtrack to Luchino Visconti's 1963 masterpiece Il Gattopardo ("The Leopard") adds immeasurably to that film's grandeur. The music is very classical in style, almost as though it were written during the era the film is set -- Sicily, 1860. Memorable and incomparable is the closing sequence, when Burt Lancaster's Prince Fabrizio recognizes that his way of life is disappearing before his eyes. Limited edition of 500 copies.

This is the legendary score to Federico Fellini's legendary 1960 film La Dolce Vita. The music by Nino Rota is sometimes quasi-liturgical, sometimes jazz, sometimes rock; lurking beneath is the irreverence of tuba and accordions, and snatches of pop songs. The characters in Fellini's movie are forever in motion, and Rota gives them music for their processions and parades. Limited edition of 500 copies.
