  • @rlegro
    @rlegro Před 5 lety +21

    An under-appreciated irony of Lalo Schifrin's original "MI" theme Is that his inspiration may not just have come from Dave Brubeck's "Take Five" but from an earlier spy opus. In 1964, the TV series "The Man From UNCLE" began its first season. The series title theme was composed by the always innovative Jerry Goldsmith who used 5/4 although for episodic cues he sometimes went to 4/4 and other time signatures. Every bit as much as Schifrin's 5/4 MI theme, Golsmith's original "UNCLE" arrangement is quite a driving. ear-catching work. Nevertheless, for unknown reasons, the series producers chose to keep using the theme but likewise dumbed it down. Thus in the subsequent three "UNCLE" seasons (and the spin-off season of "Girl From UNCLE"), Goldsmith's piece was re-arranged by different composers. First up: Mr. Schifrin! He migrated the original score into 4/4. Thus in his later "MI" composition he may well have been influenced by both Brubeck and Goldsmith. Interestingly, the beats in Goldsmith's tune are different from those in Schifrin's MI theme. More than one way to skin 5/4 time -- as the Pathetique symphony by Tchaikovsky also demonstrates.

    As far as I'm concerned, Paramount should just not even bother writing yet another new version for the next movie and just hire these guys to play EXACTLY this arrangement in its entirety. Best version of this I have ever heard, and the first time I recall ever hearing Mr. Schifrin's entire original composition.

      @@CaptainSpalding72 I was thinking of how much fun they appear to be having while they are playing! I don't know enough drummers on a personal level to know what happens to them when they get home!

    Great video. Loved oboe man wetting his double reeds. Learning more about difficult time signatures is very interesting for me.
