Accompanying this classic pairing of Morricone's brilliant originals and Zorn's exciting arrangements is a fabulous 32 page full color booklet filled with informative notes, movie stills, posters, andmore.'' ''This is a record that has fresh, good and intelligent ideas. It is realization on a high level, a work done by a maestro with great science-fantasy and creativity. At times my works have been varied from but it doesn't change anything because the pieces are still recognizable. My ideas have been realized not in a passive manner, but in an active manner which has recreated and re-invented what have have done previously for films. Many people have done versions of my pieces, but no one has done them like this.' -- Ennio Morricone. [Tzadik]
