MORRICONE and MORRIONE
Publish2017-05-03 09:53:03
Because misreading the Morrione.,the controversy over Vicino al ciel & Verró has been around for years. Although many fans and web sites point out that it does not belong to the works of Ennio Morricone, but the official web site has not changed and no any response for years
#####################
#######################
As early as 2012, Mr. Didier sent me a chronology edited by himself, it has been very clear that these two short films is excluded from Morricone chronology. in 2015, when I re-edited the 3rd edition of chronology, I was very careful to contact my friend Mr. Michel Caletka, he quoted the info in CHIMAI to me, also gave a same clear answer
############################################
........2) Vicino al ciel & Verró
There's a comment given on the chimai-website, that I think explains very well, why these themes have been listed at first, but have to be eliminated from the chronology, as they have no connection to Morricone at all:
- " This song is NOT linked to Ennio Morricone in any way. Paolina Morrione is the lyricist, with composer Matteo Marletta and orchestrator Marcello Giombini.
The Musicography [page 23] incorrectly suggests: "As composer is mentioned 'Morrione', but this is probably a misprint for 'Morricone'." This assumption is based on the spelling similarity between 'Morrione' and 'Morricone', but also on the sequencing of the author names provided by the 45rpm. As a rule the text author is listed before the music author [Morrione/Marletta]. However, the label of the 45 reads 'Marletta/Morrione', leading to the false conclusion that Marletta wrote the lyrics and Morrione the music.
2:43 - Verrò
Authors: Morrione/Marletta
Lyricist: Paolina Morrione

"Numero di catalogo: SP 1071 - Anno 1961" http://bit.ly/Tq5DEP
The B-side [Vicino al ciel] is also not related to Morricone." -
Yet this error has also been copied from one filmography to another........

But the info about "MORRIONE" is very little, only there is a bit of in CHIMAI
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the above information, there is no doubt about the composer is Matteo Marletta and lyricist is Paolina Morrione. Unfortunately, too little information about Paolina Morrione，we don't even know when he was born? So the only question to consider is that, Is Paolina Morrione an alias for Ennio Morricone? In 60s, this situation is not uncommon. I see this situation in DISCOGS web site:
DISCOGS-1. Research Verrò or Vicino al ciel , open a directory web page There are 13 SP 1071 DISC
###############################################
#################################################
DISCOGS-2. Click first disc linkto opne a new page
################################################
#################################################
DISCOGS-3. Click "Marletta" link ,Can see about Marletta's infomation
#################################################
#################################################
DISCOGS-4. When click "Morrione" link，A dramatic problem arises！The link point unexpectedly is Ennio Morricone。I see his "Variations"，total more 60 names，One of them is Morrione, and there also is a "D. Morricone"
------------------------------------
Click that "Morrione" , Shown a title page of "Morrione" and all catalogue of that "Milva ‎– Verrò / Vicino Al Ciel"
---------------------
DISCOGS-5 I have found the "D. Morrione" in the Ennio Morricone's alternate name bar
---------------------------------------
Click "D.Morrione" ，looked a spain songs "Vendrás"（Verró）.Arranged By – C. Mapel，Written-By – D. Morrione*, M. Marletta*
########################################################
#########################################################
Here is Spain singer GELU's info:
###########################################################
#############################################################
I try to open – F. Migliacci one of two writter ，he really is a lyricist:
###############################################################
################################################################
So we have reason to infer，that D. Morrione in B2-Vendrás (Verró) Should also be a lyricist. But I've never heard that Ennio Morricone Lyrics for any songs, so i am to be skeptical about that D. Morrione
I have found the song in YouTube It shows that the song sung by GELU is the same as that song sung by Milva
Video in online（Youku website 02'39"）
------------------------------------
I checked Ennio Morricone and Morrione's info in IMDB. No Morrione in Ennio Morricone's alias
######################################
#####################################
Search "Morrione", found 10 similar name：
Doug Morrione (Editor, Everything In the Song Is True (2016)
Kerri Morrione (Self, The Amazing Race (2001)
Phil Morrione (Actor, American Genius (2011)
Alexandra Morrione (Actress, Super Detention (2016)
Stephen Mirrione (Editor, The Hunger Games (2012)

Amanda Marrione (Stunts, Caprice (2010)
Maggie Mirrione
Matthew Mirrione (Actor, The Golden Spiral (2010)
Gaspare Mirrione (Actor, The Sicilian (1987)
It is a pity that not that Paolina Morrione we are looking for

Summary

1. A lot of reliable information (Especially National Central Library in Florence Italy and Copyright Office of Congress in Washington) prove that the lyricist is Paolina Morrione and the composer is Matteo Marletta for the 2 songs Vicino al ciel & Verró
2. Some web sites show "Morrione or D. Morrione" indeed is "Ennio Morricone", and he is the lyricist of the 2 songs. But there are 2 problems:
2-1: Whether "Morrione or D. Morrione", any one is not "Paolina Morrione"
2-2: From my personal information, Ennio Morricone was only a composer and never heard of which lyrics he wrote. But Paolina Morrione only is a lyricist
3. Final conclusion：
3-1: The copyright of the two songs belongs to Paolina Morrione (Lyricist) and Matteo Marletta (Composer)
3-2: Unless there are exact data prove that Paolina Morrione indeed is Ennio Morricone, and he really lyricist for the 2 songs, so it is wrong that all show Ennio Morricone is the writer of the songs. In particular, his official website, long-term display of suspicious information above, Ignore all opinions, if can't show reliable proof, not only involve tort problem, for its own credibility, and even for the maestro himself, have caused a bad effect. We ask them to act as soon as possible, or show strong evidence, or correct it immediately
