    That was wonderful!

    St. Giles, can you help me out with identifying the composer(s) of the soundtrack of the Nasa docuмentary Time of Apollo (1975), narrated by Burgess Meredith?



    Specifically the piano pieces at 1:45 to 3:10. And then 3:12 to 4:14.

    I'd like to listen to these two piano Bach-like pieces in isolation from the docuмentary.

  • I don't know, but they sound modern. The first has strings accompanying the piano with sort of a sound track theme so it seems to me, the second sounds like piano jazz with bass and soft percussion accompaniment like what was used for some Charlie Brown sound tracks.

    I once asked this same question on some classical music forum and the only answers I got were similar to yours. These two pieces have a profound effect on me, so I'm surprised that they aren't the work of some notable composer.

    How do you rate these two pieces? Mediocre?

    I'd love to track down the original recordings, so that I could listen to them isolated from the docuмentary.

    Mentioning Charlie Brown I think of the great Vince Guaraldi tune Linus and Lucy:

    A Charlie Brown Christmas - the album, is a Christmas listening tradition with me. I am not an overt fan of jazz per se, but the animation coupled with the music, especially being a Yuletide theme, makes this a holy day(s) favourite.

    The music for It's the Great Pumpkin resonates as well....when the 31 Oct was just one day and life had a greater sense of innocence and the truly demented and macabre was still in the future.

    I liked that album when I was a kid, but I find the track Linus and Lucy is the only one I repeatedly listen to.

    Quote
    "Linus and Lucy" is a popular instrumental jazz standard written by American jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi. It serves as the main theme tune for the many Peanuts animated specials and is named for the two fictional siblings, Linus and Lucy Van Pelt. The jazz standard was originally released on Guaraldi's album Jazz Impressions of A Boy Named Charlie Brown in 1964, but it gained its greatest exposure as part of A Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack the following year.[2] It is one of the most recognizable pieces by Guaraldi and has gained status as the signature melody of the Peanuts franchise.[3]
