“La donna della domenica” (Sunday Woman) is a 1975 giallo movie, an Italian/French co-production directed by Luigi Comencini and starring Marcello Mastroianni, Jacqueline Bisset and Jean-Louis Trintignant.

The soundtrack of this film, composed, orchestrated and directed by Ennio Morricone, enjoys the typical elements of the Maestro’s style, and mainly consists of a beautiful leading theme and various variations, alternating with more intense moments, perfect for a detective film, evoking the atmosphere of “Indagine su un cittadino al di sopra di ogni sospetto” (Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion) or “Milano odia: la polizia non può sparare” (Almost Human), two films for which Morricone himself wrote the soundtrack a few years earlier. Mystery, tension and melancholy are the main features of this excellent work.

At the time, only a single 45rpm was released for “La donna della domenica”, including the main theme and “Torino di notte” as the B-side, and only in 2008 the full score has been finally released on CD; this is therefore the very first vinyl version of this soundtrack!
