Morricone Youth Rescoring Mad Max and Night of the Living Dead
Classic films get a new score written and performed live by electro/rock trio.
Overview
There's been a major trend in the past few years of film screenings with full symphony orchestras playing the score live – the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra are doing it for Star Wars in December. But instead of just playing along, New York's Morricone Youth write original 're-scores' for famous films in their own trademark prog/Krautrock/space-age surf style, adding a whole new dimension and context to films you've loved for years.
This year's festival sees them take over Carriageworks in their Australian debut, working their magic on George Miller's original Mad Max and George Romero's iconic Night of the Living Dead.
