Femmes Of Rock - The Good, The Bad & The Ecstasy

Official Music video of Femmes of Rock performing their arrangement of Ennio Morricone's "Ecstasy Of Gold" and "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly" (theme) from the 1966 motion picture film The Good, The Bad & The Ugly directed by Sergio Leone and starring Clint Eastwood.

This arrangement/music video was fan-commissioned by Aaron Bills, whom we met in 2016 when we gave a Yamaha-sponsored educational clinic and performance at Centreville High School in Fairfax County, Virginia. His son Alex was a student there at the time. Alex can be seen/heard in our video as the featured harpist. He now attends Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

We wish to thank Aaron for not only giving us this opportunity to pay tribute to one of the greatest composers in modern history, but also for supporting the arts and keeping us working during an unprecedented year of difficulty for all of us in the entertainment industry.
