Just his presence was amazing. My future wife and I in the late sixties attended a Mancini concert in the basketball coliseum at UGA. We were seated on the floor near the stage and as he began the evening a wanna be hippy long hair couple got up and started throwing a frizzy back and forth. Catching them out of the corner of his eye he stopped the orchestra mid phrase, turned to the couple on the floor saying “let me know when you have finished. I would hate to detract from your performance. The crowd roared in support then booed the two hippies who slunk away while he continued. What a master.
Sigo pensando que Mancini es el mejor compositor de cine. Su conocimiento técnico de la música y su don melódico son inigualables. Y también quiero destacar (porque este es un aspecto del que casi nunca se habla) al Mancini pianista: su toque elegante y exquisito buen gusto, inmediatamente reconocibles. Este vídeo no tiene precio. 👍👏👏👏👏
The transition to Days of Wine & Roses, then to Moon River was the best. The horn heavy finish to Moon River was, well, heavy; not untypical for the time of a recap of the master's hits. He still wrote the best movie music of anybody, regardless of what some list says.
MANCINI ESCRIBIO ALGUNAS DE LAS MELODIAS MAS BELLAS DEL CINE.- MOON RIVER, TWO FOR THE ROAD, SUNFLOWER, EL ARBOL DE LOS ENAMORADOS, DAYS OF WINE AND ROSES, EL PASEO DE LOS ELEFANTES, LA VIDA A TRAVES DE UN VASO DE CRISTAL, ETC,ETC,ETC,ETC.-
I'm more of a fan of his theme to Charade (no voices) his theme to Experiment In Terror, that long percussion track in the Hatari soundtrack, the Mr. Lucky Goes Latin Album....you get the idea...
He wrote some of the most beautiful melodies ever, and mostly for films and TV. His particular genius is sorely missed.
Totally agreed ! ❤
One of my All time Favorite Composers. R.I.P. Henry. Love to his Family XXXXX
Music doesn't get much better than this ,my all time favourite composer.

In loving memory of Henry Mancini
Composer of Pink Panther theme song
Your beautiful work will live on forever.
Goodbye so soon 🥲🎼🎵🎶
Gives me goosebumps. ❤
Amazing too - a live recording in front of an audience
I think he was the returned soul of Beethoven. So, HOPEFULLY he will return again. Both did amazing things with music.
The surviving musicians from this concert are now in the 70's or 80's (or older). The remainder are with Henry in Paradise, making the angels smile.
Mancini music is perfect . Provides so many beautiful piece's for an outstanding listening pleasure.
Wonderful! Beautiful! Thank you!!!
Superb!!

This was wine and roses in the middle right? So I was not tripping LOL, so awesome to hear

Mancini e Morricone due grandi di musica da films peccato che mancini ci ha lasciato presto
Sí, y me consta que ambos se admiraban mutuamente.
merci !
On time... moon river takes you Home.. on time
Is this a medley?
Yes, it is a medley of several of his most popular songs.
Why is there so many people playing the same instrument... 10 violin?
Please someone tell me the name of this song at 2:20 minutes, thank you very much, wonderful video.
Dear Heart
Dear Heart…from the Glenn Ford film…then came, “The wishing tree,” then, “The days of wine and roses.”
