- PBS production Henry Mancini & Friends 1987. Introduced by Quincy Jones and Steve Allen, Henry's orchestra plays the love theme from "The Glen Miller Story", "Too Little Time" featuring Bill Watrous trombone solo. Don Raye added lyrics to this Mancini score. To my ears this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. Available on 1963 RCA album "Our Man In Hollywood" featuring Dick Nash on trombone. Haunting melody.

Heard Bill Watrous live when I was 12, rocked my world..He is an ICON in the music world…RIP Bill.
Rest in Peace Henry. Your music was a reflection of what a dear, and lovely person you were in life. With fondest memories, Maryann Watrous
Beautiful! Happy birthday honey. Love, Jason, and Maryann...6.8.2023
Just imagine what heaven will be like with Henry and Bill already there. I only hope I get a seat at the table. What a gift God has given to us. Why must there be so much anger, fighting, envy, and hatred. More love and music might help.
Great maestro, great Music from Hollywood! We're missing Henry Mancini!!..
Thanks for sharing, love it… has me think of my beloved grandparents, my parents and my brother who used to play the trombone. Sad not more people listen to this style in modern times, but I’m enjoying it still here in 2022. Such soothing music, marvelous!
As Steve Allen says, "Too Little Time" is one of the most beautiful songs ever written in his and my opinion. The vocal version was first recorded in 1954 by Steve Lawrence. The Anita Kerr Singers won a grammy singing this and other Mandini song on their album, "We Dig Mancini." Henry's daughter Monica has a beautiful voice and sings many of her dad's songs on several albums. She, her twin sister Felice, brother Chris, and mother Ginny O'Connor were all in the Mancini Chorus. Felice wrote the beautiful song "Sometimes" with her dad. It is sung by Karen Carpenter. on one of her albums. Cheers.
So beautiful, words just can not do it justice. I know when I hear this and other of his selections, I tear up, it brings back lovely memories of days gone by, there will never be another Mancini.
There will be another Watrous...RIP Bill
Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful! May both these two great musicians rest in peace!
The last of the beautiful music composers and performers.

Wow. So mellow
Love Mancini as composer and arranger!
Beauty exists. I have no doubt about it.
Thanks for posting this. This tune is the ultimate melody and perfect for trombone. Thank you Mr. Watrous for playing your heart out
What a beautiful and moving performance! Henry Mancini _almost_ worked with the AAF Band at age 19 but Captain Miller felt he needed to mature a bit more. And that he did, becoming the pianist and an arranger with the postwar band under Tex Beneke's leadership. After scoring The Glenn Miller Story, Mancini went on to lead own studio band built it around a core of musicians who had been with Beneke or the original civilian or AAF orchestras.
He also met his wife Ginny at that time with the band. Julie Andrews says Blake proposed to her over the phone with a Mancini song planing in the background. Henry would call Julie with a new Mancini song and ask her how she liked it.
Bill Watrous. The greatest ballad trombone player that ever lived. R.I.P. Bill.
Henry was the best of the best, a real immortal composer. Only to hear this music makes my skin crawl. Thank you for posting.
"Our Man In Hollywood" is my favorite Mancini album. I too have heard and have most of his albums. I've had it since the early sixties.
Outstanding beautiful astonishing elegance and just spectacular!
This song and Bill Watrous inspired me so much, that I played this song for my father as he was in Hospice today.
t Bill Watrous is always worth waiting for! 2 mins 40 secs before Bill starts playing.
This is the song I'd want for my funeral, just with less fluff (stings).
i was a little kid when i noticed henry mancini. no one in my neighborhood knew what i was talking about.
in college, the trombone was my first brass band instrument...
thanks for this upload.
Because of the movie music of Henry Mancini, I now have an appreciation of movie music from so many other composers, Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, Bill Conti, John Barry, Hans Zimmer, and so many, many more. But, Mr. Mancini's music was where I started. "The Pink Panther", "Hatari", ""Breakfast at Tiffany's, "The Great Race". I mention only a few as there are so many. I wish I had room for his TV themes. I cried when I heard he died in 1994. But, we have his music, so he is alive still.
senorkaboom curious if you like (harder stuff) John Carpenter?
What a sweet sound.
Talent like his is God given~His music speaks to my soul. I cant thank you enough Hank~~~
Brilliant rendition by Bill Watrus! Sounded just like Henry!
Bill must have one of the most perfect sounds on a bone ever he legatoe style of play is a style to be envied
THIS HAS TO BE MY ALL TIME FAVOURITE JUST LOVE IT--LOVE IT--LOVE IT
Bill Watrous (without the bell in the mike) and Henry Mancini are an unbeatable combination.
Beautiful writing! Also beautiful playing by Bill.
Featuring the excellent A~list trombonist Bill Watrous, Absolutely prolific and a steadfast example of the poetic truth they just; measure for measure =/ don't make music or composers like him any more!
Que magnifico arranjo musical deste inesquecível maestro Henry Mancini.
RIP Bill, incredible musician.
Beautiful....
Quincy Jones just a underappreciated human being really.
Why is he not more prominently contemporary community as a Elder to the culture?
Made me cry
Thanks so much, Ed, for the information. I have "OMIH" and knew it was Dick, but, eyes closed, Bill Watrous does Dick's effort justice. I had never known that was Dicks first solo...his trombone sound has become so synonymous with Mancini's sound.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Rest in peace, Bill.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I don't know if any of you are aware of this, but in THE GLENN MILLER STORY, JIMMY STEWART Did not play the trombone, it was plugged, and played by another musician off screen.
RIP Bill.
Bill Watrous does the solo trombone on this video. The Mancini album "Our Man In Hollywood" features the trombone solo by Dick Nash. Both solos are wonderful. Both trombonists are legends. The Dick Nash version was his first solo on an album with Mancini. Murray McEachern had done the trombone work behind James Stewart in the movie but was unavailable for the album. "Our Man In Hollywood" is one of the best Mancini albums I have heard and I have many. Highly recommended.
patty myers where are you? we both danced to music this and hopelessly in love !
According to various sources including George T. Simon, Jimmy's "playing" was performed by Joe Yukl rather than Murray McEachern. Regardless, both men were underappreciated geniuses.
Sorry rspondi in Portuguese! Fully agree with you EdWaldrup!
3:15-3:28 without noticable breath --> circular breathing
Dave Steinmeyer was the lead trombone (25 +years) and also was the music director for many years on The Airmen of Note. He is one of the finest bone players on the planet. Check out his rendition of this piece. I will try and post it on the site if not found.
Steve Lawrence recorded this and I have yet to find it anywhere. A hauntingly beautiful song!
Amazon has it on a CD titled "All My Love Belongs To You." I just now purchased a copy.Thanks for the information about a vocal version.
You will hear something very similar to this style if you stay tuned (pun intended...my surname is Tune) to my trombone playing; my original teacher taught me to play just this way....(i.e. a ballad is to be "sung" as in plenty of slide vibrato)
I feel very fortunate to have been trained by Harold Diner and to live here in LA. ....and to count Dick as a friend...(Bill is more acquaintance...hopefuly he and I will run into each other more often)
That's Bill Watrous on the bone.
Concordo com você EdWaldrup!
When adults were adults.
+EdWaldrup thank you
Who was the conductor? You can tell he loves the song.
Mancini
Is Bill Watrous great or what ??
What year was this?
1987, according to the introl
That isn't Dick Nash... it is Bill Watrous
Yes I know. Dick Nash was Henry's go to trombone soloist on many, many albums. Dick is still alive and is remarkable.
where can I find the arangement?

Who then is this? ruclips.net/video/YT9nsFP_jaU/видео.html It's Mancini conducting his own music, but there is no credit for the session. It is sometimes hard to tell because everybody who plays this piece defaults to 'period' correct style and vibrato; or, at least I hope they are; I'd hate to think that modern trombonists still believe that this kind of vibrato is still a 'thing'. I'd prefer to here this beautiful ballad without the nervous impediment of excessive (in both rate and slew) slide vibrato. The tune deserves it.

Glenn Miller is with 2 n.......
that is the amazing Bill Watrous. It is not Dick Nash !
Ashdin Bharucha happy 2019!
Dick Nash established that Hollywood silky sound and Bill sat next to him in the studios
