Here is part 2 of my series on Morricone's classic score for ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST, this time with an in-depth look at how Cheyenne's theme displays Ennio's highly unique style. Special thanks go to Mr. Shark for helping me identify the instrumentation. http://www.filmmusicnotes.com/ennio-morricones-score-for-once-upon-a-time-in-the-west-part-2-of-3-cheyennes-theme/
