Tiny Toon Adventures Theme as played by Bryan Pezzone

Converted from a Yamaha Disklavier file into MIDI so it could be played on this PianoDisc-equipped Mason & Hamlin, this is the theme to Tiny Toon Adventures played by Bryan Pezzone, who was the pianist for most of the "Silver Age" WB cartoons.

Bryan's YouTube account is "bryanpezzone". http://www.youtube.com/user/bryanpezzone

This theme, by Bruce Broughton, Wayne Kaatz and Tom Ruegger, originally was written as an instrumental, but it was decided later on that the show's theme should be a song. As I recall the story, Broughton thought he'd have to write a new piece of music, never imagining that the tune would work as a song.

Those who want to hear this theme ragged up are advised to check out the rendition by my friend Martin Spitznagel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMAOCaeSnT0

And of course, the original: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzgtPJkI0ZM

Is there a original somewhere?

@lensboel You mean video of his original performance? I doubt the Disklavier sessions were video recorded. Bryan said he hasn't even heard these performances since the day he recorded them for Yamaha.

@Keeper1st Video or audio. I was just looking for your reference :)

@lensboel I just added a link to the original theme song in the description, if that's what you're asking.

I wish cartoon openings were still as crazy awesome as this. Nowadays cartoons are all flash animations with garage band samples used as music.

@lokigod876 I too, was haunted by a player piano that would only play the Tiny Toon Adventures song as a child :(

I love it! It translates so well to piano, I love the ending especially.
