During his long career Rota was an extraordinarily prolific composer, especially of music for the cinema.

After his death from heart failure in 1979, Rota's music was the subject of Hal Willner's 1981 tribute album Amarcord Nino Rota, which featured several at the time relatively unknown but now famous jazz musicians.
