Biography

Henry Mancini was the award winning film score composer best known for The Pink Panther theme.

Mancini learned to play the flute and piano as a child, and went on to formal music education at the Julliard School of Music, although being drafted during the Second World War interrupted his studies. After the war he worked with the Glen Miller Band, although it was his move to Universal Studios that… Read more in Amazon's Henry Mancini Store

5.0 out of 5 stars If you don't have any Mancini, why not?, July 28, 2004

Rich Ernst "DeLorean Guy" (Bridgeton, NJ USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Midnight Moonlight & Magic: The Very Best of Henry Mancini (Audio CD)

This album is a great survey of Henry Mancini's work. I am only 20 so I didn't get to hear all his hits the first time around and I've really enjoyed listening to this CD. There are a lot of great instrumentals here and some songs have singing as well, of course. This album made me appreciate Henry Mancini's prolific career. I would highly recommend this album.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mancini Delivers, August 5, 2007

Long time fan - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Midnight Moonlight & Magic: The Very Best of Henry Mancini (Audio CD)

As always, the music of Henry Mancini never fails to deliver the range of sounds associated with his talented career. This album showcases a wide variety of his music, and that's the key to his charm. He could never be expected to do the same thing, and his talent led him from the growly notes of the Peter Gunn theme to the wild polka music of the slapstick pie fight in The Great Race. Whether sentimental like The Sweetheart Tree or Moon River or the sneaky tiptoe of the Pink Panther, Mancini always delivered in an expert, smooth style that is so lacking in the present. The perfect album for what is now sneeringly referred to as Easy Listening, it's just the thing for a rainy afternoon, or a quiet morning sipping coffee. Too bad he's gone, the world could use a gifted talent like Henry Mancini even now.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the best from the best ..., April 4, 2006

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Midnight Moonlight & Magic: The Very Best of Henry Mancini (Audio CD)

Sometimes the cover alone is worth the price, and this one really captures the spirit of the music. It's martini-retro and somewhat self-indulgent, but it's also great music. For all those (like myself) who've fallen in love with chill-out and lounge sounds, this is the real deal.
