For CORTEO, a production about a clown who has a vivid dream of his own funeral, the Cirque Du Soleil troupe offers up a typically elegant soundtrack, incorporating a wide array of European music, including klezmer ("Klezmer Moment") and tango ("Triangle Tango"). The songs here are both celebratory and melancholy, with lush arrangements that are bolstered by choral and string ensembles.
