The Story
Film scores have never been more in the spotlight. Hans Zimmer and John Williams are selling out arenas with orchestras, and Ennio Morricone’s work is being celebrated on stage around the world. But no tribute to the golden age of movie music is complete without Henry Mancini. The son of Italian immigrants, Mancini won four Oscars, picked up 18 nominations, and took home 20 Grammys over his incredible career. From timeless classics like Moon River (Breakfast at Tiffany’s) to the unforgettable theme from The Pink Panther, his melodies have become part of pop culture. This collection brings together some of his greatest work—from Peter Gunn to Mr. Lucky and Hatari!—tunes that generations still recognise the moment they hear them.
