Description
“This effervescent soundtrack for Blake Edwards’ adaption of Truman Capote’s wistful novella propelled Mancini into the major league of Hollywood composers. Though there were other jazz-oriented arrangers working in Hollywood at the time, none possessed Mancini’s imagination and skill in orchestration.” (Stephen Cook & Bruce Eder).
All songs composed by HENRY MANCINI, except “Moon River”, by Henry Mancini & Johnny Mercer.
