A moving, cheeky and hilarious hommage to the genius of Morricone.
Le Parisien 3 October

The Spaghetti Western Orchestra premiered in 2007 and was the sell-out hit of The Montreal Jazz Festival. The show toured to L'Europeen Theatre in Paris, St Pauli Theatre in Hamburg, the Koln Philharmonie and The Athenaeum Theatre In Melbourne.  The show returned to Montreal in February 2008, for the En Lumiere Festival at the Outremont Theatre.

The Show

The Orchestra rides into town with a wagon train of instruments, to perform classic Ennio Morricone compositions including; The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, Once Upon A Time In The West and For A Few Dollars More. 

With a fistful of humour and a bucket-load of fun, the orchestra underscores these brilliant musical adventures: all the sound effects of the iconic spaghetti western films - every punch up, gunshot, and jangling spur - is recreated using coat hangers, cornflakes, nail clippers, rubber gloves and other ingenious 'instruments' pulled from their saddlebag of tricks.

The Spaghetti Western Orchestra is a tribute to Morricone, performed by a posse of magnificent musicians.
