The Swinging Soundtracks of Henry Mancini
Henry Mancini combined elements of jazz, pop, easy listening, and exotica into lush, loungey scores that all but defined space-age, cocktail-shaker sophistication. Bright, breezy, and casually inventive, Mancini’s music lends that little something extra to works by Orson Welles ( Touch of Evil ), Stanley Donen ( Charade , Two for the Road ), and especially Blake Edwards, with whom Mancini collaborated on twenty-seven films, including the classics Days of Wine and Roses and Victor/Victoria .
