Armed
with over 100 instruments, these brilliant musicians
perform music from the movies that made Clint Eastwood a
star. The stunning Ennio Morricone soundtracks include The
Good, the Bad and the Ugly, For a Few Dollars More and Once
upon a Time in the West. This ingenious
gang of comic maestros underscore these classic compositions
with hilarious sound effects... blowing on bottles,
crushing corn flakes and ‘playing’ coat hangers, apples,
squeaky toys, rubber gloves, bicycle pumps, nail clippers
and other household items – recreating every punch up, gunshot
and jangling spur that defined the gun-slinging West. Audiences
across the world have been amazed and enthralled by this
international sensation.
“Take
the magnificent music of Ennio Morricone, add five multi-talented,
unashamedly theatrical Australians with impeccable comedy
timing and let them loose on 100 instruments and you have
some idea of Spaghetti Western Orchestra. A joyous celebration!”
