Introduction:

In order to render The Godfather, a movie with the theme of the Italian Mafia, the director deliberately did not hire a Hollywood composer , inviting Italian composer Nino Rota, who had collaborated with director Fellini on countless films at that time. In addition to original music, the play also uses a lot of music full of strong Sicilian style.

The first and second episodes are both scored by Nino Rota and Carmine Coppola. The famous "Godfather Waltz" at the beginning of the album was originally written by Nino Rota for a little-known comedy "Fortunella" in 1957. It was not specifically created for the "Godfather" movie, so the Academy Award Executive Committee It was believed that it was not in line with the "original" spirit encouraged by the Oscars, so it missed out on the Academy Awards. And "Love Theme from Godfather" has become a world-famous classic song.

"The Immigrant" is Nino Rota's new creation in The Godfather Part II. It appears from time to time in the play to foretell the occurrence of tragedy. The score for The Godfather Part II finally received Oscar recognition.

Perhaps Nino Rota's melodies have become registered trademarks of The Godfather. In the third episode, Carmel Coppola still uses many of Nino Rota's old works (Nino Rota in 1979 passed away). Track 16 is the prelude to Masconi's "Knight Rider", which is the wonderful plot in The Godfather III in which the Corleone family uses the opera performance to carry out liquidation and revenge.

This music album is the original soundtrack of the movies "The Godfather", "The Godfather Part II" and "The Godfather Part III". Both have scores by Nino Rota and Carmine Coppola.

It showcased the outstanding directorial talent of Francis Ford Coppola and won three awards at the 45th Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Actor. But the more important significance of this film is that it has opened up broad prospects for a very long crime film genre in the history of American films. Its ideological depth and connotation far exceed the scope of violence, and sublimate the theme to the most common power in human society. Dialectical relationship between "power" and "evil" in the deep meaning of alternation. Isn’t the criminal history of an Italian Corleone family also a page of criminal history in modern European and American society?

The score for the first episode of "The Godfather" is the musical foundation of the entire "Godfather Trilogy" and was completed by the "Godfather of Italian Music" Nino Rota.

When he was nominated for the Oscar for Best Score, he was criticized, saying The theme music had been used in one of his Italian films and was therefore disqualified from the nomination. Two years later, Nino Rota composed the score for "The Godfather Part II" with the same theme music, but the Oscar was awarded to him obediently, which shows the overwhelming momentum of the film. In the soundtrack of "The Godfather" movie, "Theme of Love" has long been a popular mood music all over the world; "Michael's Theme" highlights the tragic life of the godfather's second son with passionate orchestral music; "The Godfather Waltz" cooperates with The scene where father and daughter embrace and dance is the most exciting and charming.
