Carols vs action movies
Heard an instrumental orchestral rendition of "Carol of the Bells" on the radio the other day that had a prominent brass section and a sort of driving beat that made it sound like the score to an action movie (or perhaps an action movie trailer). Kind of a Carmina Burana "O Fortuna" feel.
So now I'm wondering: what other carols (or other light popular music) would make good action movie music, if arranged properly?
I suppose just about anything could be done that way, but I'm curious if y'all know of examples.
