The Pink Panther is one of the best main themes ever. Very impressive performance!

[@fredleal2931]

I must say Mission Impossible although I also love this theme

[@michaelmancini5773]

he's was and is my uncle Henry, and I'm still in awe of his music.

[@patrickarlaud4677]

Oh wow!

[@thomasthomas8091]

That's awesome! The whole world lost him in 1994, and he is truly sadly missed by many. Hopefully he's still entertaining musically, wherever he is.

[@celestejaworski3124]

❤ that theme song his music

[@karenreardon5398]

Henry's music is timeless. So sorely missed.😢❤

This was a fabulous song in the 60s. I loved this song. Pink Panther!

[@babesimmons4017]

They look like they are having a great time playing! Made us smile through the entire video😁

[@WDRKlassik]

We are happy that the joy comes across!

[@Garrito06]

I play the flute and my friend plays the tenor sax and we have been waiting for so long to play this son in our class. We each got a solo and I’m so excited

[@WDRKlassik]

Sounds like fun!

[@amethystanne4586]

I am assuming you have played your solo since your post? Did you enjoy doing your solo? Sixth-grader MiddleGrandson just started this year playing the saxophone. He and I have discussed how much we enjoy The Pink Panther Theme. For his birthday next month, I bought him a copy of it in the alto saxophone range.

[@aaslaughaga]

Never knew Bill Gates could play saxophone.

[@CharlesPayet]

Oh, the memories this brings back, of watching Peter Sellers in all those Pink Panther movies with the family in the early 80's! Love this performance!

[@jeannieward4131]

He plays the saxophone very well... It makes me feel happy. Thank you for sending it to me

[@mrdjangofreeman5560]

Great version of this legendary tune , congrats 😊

[@WTH1812]

Mancini produced so much great music. Love the way Pink Panther and Peter Gunn are recognizable from the first tap of the drum/cymbal.

[@caprioli54]

It remind when I was a little kid ( 8 year old ) to watch the PANTERA ROSA in televition carton and it was a good music and program. now I am 70 year old and still I like the music very much...Mr. MANCINI GRAZIE....

[@WDRKlassik]

[@malloryfadden345]

I love all your performances and I have to say the guy on saxophone looks like he enjoys this very much so very talented bunch of people ❤

[@steffendittrich7239]

Einfach Zeitlos und Klasse. Kann man sich ewig anhören. Super.

[@rebeccaduncan5970]

the Pink Panther had a old school song to be playing now when the show was cool and had seeing the show into the 1977 and here to you Henry Mancini thinking you sir , Robert K, 😎🤓🦸🧚‍♀🧚‍♂🧚

[@richardhughes7868]

Bye far the best version I’ve had the pleasure of watching 👀 and hearing 🦻in my opinion ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@WDRKlassik]

Thank you! 🤗

[@Ara_Arasaka]

When you’re the saxophonist for a orchestra and you wanna bring your gf to your performance to impress her:

[@jackgibsxxx0750]

This and yakky sax.

[@lisareed5669]

Fiddles are snapping like "I'm not percussion." I expected a knife fight ...

[@dudetocartman]

That's a great way to point it. Long ago as a young kid, I used to play the sax. Then I played the Piano in my Senior year of High School for a year class. I even did The Pink Panther Theme for my final on Piano. If only I can play both again, or at least piano of the theme, then that's impressive enough for anyone.

[@user-wo7mh6di5b]

Можно и бабушку привести, ей тоже понравится музыка!

A great rendition, the woman's look at about the 40s mark makes me wonder if the sax player is going off script a bit with his little improvs.

[@trainliker100]

Henry Mancini made a BIG change in the landscape of popular music by infusing so many jazz elements into it. And while a lot of people today may not have heard of him, you can probably go almost anywhere in the world and even go up to ten year old kids and go "da dum ... da dum ... da dum da dum da dum da dum da..." ahd they know the song and can continue it..

[@WDRKlassik]

So true!

[@williampalchak7574]

Henry would be proud.

[@WDRKlassik]
