For over five years, Slovakian photographer Zdenko Hanout held an extraordinary role: he was the legendary Ennio Morricone's personal photographer. More than just a documentary filmmaker, Zdenko became a trusted figure in the Maestro's inner circle, capturing the intimate behind-the-scenes world of one of the greatest musical icons of our time. This collection offers a unique perspective on Morricone's final years. Zdenko's lens was there to witness the raw emotion of the Maestro's final performances, including his historic final concerts in London and Prague. His photographs don't just show a conductor at work; they reveal the man behind the baton: his concentration, his exhaustion, and his unwavering passion for art. The exhibition also features rare and personal moments; Zdenko Hanout's work is a testament to the power of the fleeting moment, preserving Ennio Morricone's legacy in a way that deeply resonates with both the history of music and the soul of photography.
