I - even at that young age - was always captivated by this theme song. Written by none other than one of the best in the business, the incomparable Henry Mancini. Although a flute and piano player, Mancini seemed to be enthralled with the sound of the trombone! This music will live on forever.

    What I like about this video is that nine of the eleven musicians were late, so the drummer and tuba player started without them. Fortunately, they showed up just in time. Also, the drummer looks and acts like a character in a James Bond movie. I can't tell whether he's the hero or a villain, but then with spies, that's the way it's supposed to be.

  • @xero256
    @xero256 7 месяцев назад +5

    4 minutes of constant play is an endurance test for the drummer, tuba, and one of the trombones. However, there's another bit. They changed their volume so you could hear the soloist. Then ramped up again so you could still hear them when the full ensemble kicked in again. Great stuff. Always has been and always will be.

    Henry Mancini wrote the original music for the Peter Gunn theme of the Peter Gun TV series. His style used one drummer and 10 horns. It succeeded in building feeling suspense and keeping it constant. A unique Henry Mancini sound. He also wrote the music for The Pink Panther, A Shot in the Dark,Love Story, Oklahoma Crude, Theme from Charlie's Angels, The Thornbirds Theme, movies, Days of Wine and Roses, Banzai Pipeline and at least 30 others.
