Inglourious Basterds

Ennio Morricone 's compilation album from Quentin Tarantino's films including Django, Kill Bill and Inglourious Basterds.

This compilation of Ennio Morricone music features twelve re-recordings by the Solisti E Orchestre Del Cinema Italiano, all of which have appeared (in their original forms) in the Quentin Tarantino films Grindhouse: Deathproof, Kill Bill Vol. 2 and Inglorious Basterds. The renditions themselves are impeccable, utilizing the same analogue recording techniques that spawned the originals. While it was smart not to go with more recognizable fare like the vocal/electric guitar versions of Navajo Joe or The Good, The Bad and the Ugly (both are represented here by their quieter, more orchestral movements), the overall effect seems superfluous, as die-hard fans of both the composer and the director will likely seek out the real thing.

The Wild West meets the soulful sound of Italy. Fearless New York gangsters meet cowboys from the dusty prairie. Godfather meets Taxi Driver. And the magic of cinema meets the rich sound of a first-class symphony orchestra. This exclusive live concert production presents a unique selection of movie classics - from Sergio Leone's iconic Spaghetti Westerns to modern mafia masterpieces by Francis Ford Coppola and the cult movies of Tarantino. The Danish National Symphony Orchestra is conducted by Sarah Hicks and joined by a fistful of strong guest artists for this premiere performance of the authentic soundtracks by composer legends Ennio Morricone, Nino Rota, Sonny Bono and Bernard Herrmann.
