My husband found these videos of the Danish National Symphony performing films scores composed by the great Ennio Morricone for the ‘Spaghetti Westerns’ that made Clint Eastwood into an international star. Their versions of the music are very well done, but the visuals of the musicians while making the music made me laugh a lot, so I hope they do the same for you.

If you are pressed for time this Monday, I suggest skipping down to watch The Good, the Bad and the Ugly — I think it’s the best of the three — the brunette with the dead-pan delivery is wicked good, as they say in Boston.

Who knew the Danish National was so hip?
