Dave Steinmeyer was the lead trombone (25 +years) and also was the music director for many years on The Airmen of Note. He is one of the finest bone players on the planet. Check out his rendition of this piece. I will try and post it on the site if not found.

This is the kind of trombone playing that I just love and you hear much too infrequently anymore. Bill Watrous can play a ballade like no one else.

This song and Bill Watrous inspired me so much, that I played this song for my father as he was in Hospice today.

@claskew1: i would be most appreciative if anyone could post dave's (my dad's -_-) rendition of this song...
thanks for the kind words regarding my pop's work - judging by your user name, i'm guessing you're claude askew... and, if i'm correct in my assumption... "you are still to this day my favorite drummer!"
many warm regards to you, and yours... adrianne steinmeyer

Because of the movie music of Henry Mancini, I now have an appreciation of movie music from so many other composers, Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, Bill Conti, John Barry, Hans Zimmer, and so many, many more. But, Mr. Mancini's music was where I started. "The Pink Panther", "Hatari", ""Breakfast at Tiffany's, "The Great Race". I mention only a few as there are so many. I wish I had room for his TV themes. I cried when I heard he died in 1994. But, we have his music, so he is alive still.

Beautiful writing! Also beautiful playing by Bill.
Bill Watrous does the solo trombone on this video. The Mancini album "Our Man In Hollywood" features the trombone solo by Dick Nash. Both solos are wonderful. Both trombonists are legends. The Dick Nash version was his first solo on an album with Mancini. Murray McEachern had done the trombone work behind James Stewart in the movie but was unavailable for the album. "Our Man In Hollywood" is one of the best Mancini albums I have heard and I have many. Highly recommended.
