The Television series, “Mission Impossible”
first appeared in 1966, and was produced on and off until
1990.
The theme was written by Lalo Schifrin who also
worked with Clint Eastwood on the “Dirty Harry” movies.
Instantly recognisable it has been in
our collective consciousness for decades as it has also been made into a movie
franchise with Tom Cruise.
The fifth
movie in the series is about to go into production.
I really like the work of the Piano
Guys: innovative with their instruments, their arrangements and their You Tube
clips.
Lots more information on The Piano Guys’ You Tube
channel.
Here’s the original version – just for
fun – as it first appeared on our TV screens.
I have to admit I also loved the theme
from “The Man from
U.N.C.L.E.” which appeared in 1964. And many, many others: a huge list for sure!
It was written by Jerry Goldsmith
who was a prolific writer of both TV and movie soundtracks.
