Thanks for your reply Armagan.




I must say I don't really like Breuker's Chi Mai. It's very different from the original (which is good - why make the same thing again?), more fanfare-like, but keeps some of the Morricone arrangements (the rock drums for example), making it an overall inconsistent track.




But I don't know Breuker's work enough to situate this track and judge it properly.

Dear Didier,




As far as I know, the following are the Morricone pieces re-interpreted by Willem Breuker Kollektief (my list may not be exhaustive):




-The Good, the Bad and the Ugly in "Rhapsody in Blue" (this is an LP) by Willem Breuker Kollektief/Vera Beths String Quartet,




-Chi Mai in "Celebrating 25 Years on the Road" (two CDs) by Willem Breuker Kollektief,




-Chi Mai in "Metropolis" by Willem Breuker Kollektief/Mondriaan Strings/Toby Rix, and




-Revolver in "Gershwin" by Willem Breuker Kollektief/Vera Beths/Mondriaan Strings.




Best wishes,


Armagan

Armagan,




Has Willem Breuker adapted any other Morricone music than "Chi mai" on his "Metropolis" album?
