Without argument, Serge Leone's "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" is the most famous spaghetti western of all time and Ennio Morricone's film score was a major contributor in helping this film gain it's monumental status. The main theme is instantly recognizable from moment the opening flute motif is heard to it's "wah, wah, wah" response.

The music of the film's main theme has been arranged for a cappella SATB choir plus featured soloists. It also includes the duelling trumpet/piccolo segment which is omitted from most transcriptions. With the voices imitating flute sounds, ocarina, whistling, trumpet, mimicked gun-shots and more this arrangement creates a fun and infectious piece of music.
