Edda Sabatini, better known as Edda Dell’Orso, was an Italian singer whose wordless voice became a defining feature of Ennio Morricone’s most iconic scores. Her soprano, simultaneously intimate and cinematic, runs through the sound of Italian film in the 1960s and ’70s.
This In Focus traces her solo work and collaborations across the wider world of Italian soundtrack and library music, with selections from Piero Piccioni, Bruno Battisti D’Amario, Temme Di Giuditta, and Armando Trovajoli.
