Il Était Une Fois… Morricone — Paris Tickets
Overview
IL ETAIT UNE FOIS...ENNIO MORRICONE - IL ETAIT UNE FOIS… brings an immersive symphonic tribute to the music of Ennio Morricone and Nino Rota at Salle Pleyel, led by conductor Marcello Rota with long-time Morricone collaborators including Nello Salza, Ludovico Fulci and Susanna Rigacci[2][5]. The production combines live orchestra, soloists and a curated sonic program celebrating landmark film scores—from Sergio Leone westerns to Rota’s work for Fellini and Coppola—presented as an evocative concert experience rather than a film screening[2][5].
Marcello Rota, nephew of Nino Rota, directs a program designed to highlight iconic themes and the emotional range of two cinema composers who shaped 20th‑century film music; reviewers and venue listings note its immersive lighting and orchestral arrangements that honor original recordings[1][3]. Salle Pleyel, known for its refined acoustics and historical role in Paris’s classical and symphonic calendar, hosts the seated, numbered‑placement performance with accessible seating options and official ticketing via the venue[5].
Highlights

Immersive Staging: Production blends orchestral performance with immersive lighting and atmosphere to evoke filmic moments without screening the films[5][1].

Know Before You Go
Location: Salle Pleyel, 252 Rue du Faubourg Saint‑Honoré, 75008 Paris; official ticketing and seating information is available through Salle Pleyel’s box office and website[5][2]. Entry requires a numbered, seated ticket; the venue offers PMR/PSH seating and those tickets must be reserved via the hall’s dedicated service[5]. Bag and security policies follow standard concert-hall procedures: expect bag checks and security screening at entry (verify current rules with the venue before arrival)[5]. Some tickets are sold as reduced‑visibility; buyers should review seating maps since partial-view seats are offered once standard seats sell out[5].
