Tales and Songs from Weddings and Funerals (2002)

Goran Bregović, known for scoring Emir Kusturica's films, built his Wedding and Funeral Band around a brass section, strings and traditional voices. On this album the trumpets carry melodies like a narrator, moving between mournful, hymn-like passages and festive dances. Choose it if you know his film music and want the brass at the heart of it.
