With this event, we celebrate the music of Henry Mancini (1924-1994), a legendary American composer, conductor, and arranger known for his iconic film and television scores. With a career spanning over four decades, Mancini revolutionized the world of music with his innovative blend of jazz and classical styles. He is best known for composing timeless classics such as "Moon River" from Breakfast at Tiffany's and the theme music for The Pink Panther. One of the greatest composers in the history of American music, Mancini won multiple Academy Awards, Grammys, and Golden Globes. Join us for an evening with the Sam Bruton Jazz Ensemble as they paint Jackson pink with Mancini’s greatest hits, including “The Pink Panther,” “Moon River,” “The Days of Wine and Roses,” “Baby Elephant Walk,” and many others.
