Being an accomplished whistler, Alessandroni collaborated with his childhood friend Ennio Morricone on a number of soundtracks for Spaghetti westerns. Morricone's orchestration often calls for an unusual combination of instruments and voices. Alessandroni's twangy guitar riff is central to the main theme for The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Alessandroni can be heard as the whistler on the soundtracks for Sergio Leone's films A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, Once Upon a Time in the West....(WIKI)
Alessandroni is a guitarist and vocalist. His distinctive whistle has been heard on numerous Italian Westerns. Alessandroni also founded the vocal group 'I Cantori Moderni'.Alessandroni has co wrote many Italian Western scores, particularily the title themes. He was not always given the credit for this.(IMDB)
Although many Chinese are not familiar with Alessandro Alessandroni，If you tell him he's the one who whistles in the western spaghetti films, or you mentioned the “Addio A Cheyenne”. They will react with surprise and regret。
Rest in peace, The Maestro!
