Henry Mancini - 1924-1994 American composer, conductor and arranger.
Prolific composer of film and television themes...
'Dreamsville' on this video is from the 1959 show/film Peter Gunn.
It was the first time in which Mancini used a bass choir sound consisting of four trombones and four french horns enriching the sensual tonal palette of this beguiling theme.
Enjoy the dream-like landscapes on this video that seek to compliment this beguiling and atmospheric musical theme.

Henry Mancini conducts the Henry Mancini Orchestra.
Album recorded 1971.
