port boy i think in my opnion dave grusin comes so close to mancini but know one can do what he did pure genius rip mr mancini his talent will be surely missed i grew up in my house listen to him and other greats even at 40 years old i still enjoy this music ty so much for the upload waldteufe 178
No better way to hear Star Dust than to hear Mr.Mancini play it for me tonight.This is so lovely. So many recorded this beautiful song. Didn't know Mr.Mancini did too. I love it. Thanks.
I love all of Mancini's work, but it is quite varied. Could someone pin down this songs particular style/genre for me and suggest similar work, not necessarily by Mancini?
The melody is by Hoagy Carmichael, lyrics Mitchell Parish. The Miller Orchestra recorded it in 1947 well after Miller's death. Every musician has covered it. It's up there with Body and Soul as the best and most recorded pop song. The best verision -- Nat King Cole's.
I have been trying to find an arrangement by george melachrino and the melachrino strings but it seems to have disappeared. Nat King Cole does a great rendition.
Johnny Mathis does a tremendous job with this Mancini classic.

And now the purple dusk of twilight time
Steals across the meadows of my heart
High up in the sky the little stars climb
Always reminding me that we're apart
You wander down the lane and far away
Leaving me a song that will not die
Love is now the stardust of yesterday
The music of the years gone by

I think this song was written by Hoagy Carmichael, who isn't easy to categorise, but is broadly speaking jazz-influenced, night-club style.
