Ennio Morricone: …he experimented in cinema with great attention and passion (…) he was brave, and managed to put a rare and personal touch to each scene…

Renzo Rossellini: …young music students in America still study with Mario Nascinbene, even for his modernity (…) people who study soundtrack music remember and still refer to his work in film as an example for some of the most difficult, most innovative…
