Description
Three guitars in Hollywood
In collaboration with an orchestra and with the know-how of arranger Michel Gingras, MG3 takes us to Hollywood on a voyage of rediscovery of some of the best-known themes and music written for the cinema. The celebrated composer Morricone, who wrote the music for the Sergio Leone’s spaghetti westerns, is the star of the program. We are also treated to music by Bernard Hermann, who wrote the score for the greatest thriller of all times: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. The programme also features the greatest hits of Danny Elfman, composed for The Nightmare before Christmas and Men in Black. During the last few seasons, MG3 has been the guest of the Orchestre symphonique de Québec, the Orchestre symphonique du Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean, the Kamloops Symphony orchestra and the Ensemble Appassionata.
