Armed with more than 100 instruments, five brilliant multi-instrumentalists perform music from the movies that made Clint Eastwood a star. Sharing a passion for the music of the famous composer-conductor Ennio Morricone and fascinated by the sound effects and Foley techniques used in Spaghetti Westerns, this ingenious gang of comic maestros performs classic compositions from motion pictures such as "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly," "For a Few Dollars More" and "Once Upon a Time in the West." They underscore them with hilarious sound effects, such as blowing on bottles, crushing cornflakes, "playing" coat hangers, apples, squeaky toys, rubber gloves, bicycle pumps, nail clippers, and many more - recreating every punch, gunshot and jangling spur that define the gun-slinging west. Audiences across the world have stood and cheered this highly original international sensation that has spawned a new genre of concert performance. What Stomp does with rhythm and "made instruments" and Cirque du Soleil does with circus and acrobats, Spaghetti Western Orchestra does with film soundtracks and musicians.
