Benedetto Ghiglia - 4 dollari di vendetta (Original Soundtrack) (2025) [Hi-Res]

4 Dollari di Vendetta (Four Dollars of Revenge) is a 1966 Italo-Spanish Spaghetti Western directed by Giorgio Ferroni (credited as George Finley), starring Robert Woods. The story follows a former Confederate officer falsely accused and imprisoned; after his release, he seeks revenge against those who betrayed him.

Unlike many action-heavy westerns of the time, this film has a more dramatic and introspective tone, offering a deeper character study with a strong emotional undercurrent.

The soundtrack by Benedetto Ghiglia plays a central role, reinforcing the melancholy and suspense throughout the film.

Benedetto Ghiglia (1921–2012) was an Italian composer, conductor, and pianist born in Florence. He studied music at the Santa Cecilia Conservatory in Rome. Throughout the 1950s to the 1970s, he composed scores for numerous films — particularly in Western, noir, drama, and documentary genres.

Ghiglia worked with notable directors such as Roberto Rossellini and Liliana Cavani. His music is characterized by restrained emotionality, rich orchestration, and subtle thematic development, often blending elements of jazz, chamber music, and minimalism.

The soundtrack for 4 Dollari di Vendetta is one of his best-known contributions to the Spaghetti Western genre.
