He has composed scores for over 30 films starting in 1951 with the documentary film “Delta Padano”. His last score was in 1997 for Galeazzo Ciano una tragedia fascista”. Along the way he composed the scores for five Euro-westerns: “Adios Gringo” (1965), “$4.00 for Vengeance” and “Johnny Colt” (aka “Starblack”) both in 1966 and “El Rojo” and “A Stranger in Town” both in 1967.
