That some of the world\’s finest musicianship is to be
found in so-called \’commercial\’ music has long
been a fact-of-life; and Henry Moncini must be one
of its best representatives. Those who know him os
the composer of \’Moon River\’ and other classic
popular songs and themes may be surprised to
leorn that he is also o first-rate oil-round musician.
In the 50 years he\’s been in the business — amazing
to look ot him and soy that! – he\’s \’done it oil\’ (to
quote Captain Kiddie in Tom and Jerry) and has oil
the technique, all the professional expertise he
needs to give his ideas their due. In Tom and Jerry
he needed it. Animated films ore a particular
challenge for o composer. Most cartoon-scores keep
a momentum going — that\’s whot\’s required of
them, little more, little less — but ore unlistenable-to
os music. But Tom and Jerry — the Movie is what it
soys it is — a Movie — and needed more
sophisticated treatment.
