JT publishing #1006010. Published by JT publishing (A0.1425192). I transcribed Nelson Riddle arrangement on soundtrack by ear.  I transposed it to an easy key for young ensembles and added to the celeste figuration.  The second half is entirely original- a 60's swing style groove.  I tacked on a Peter Gunn influenced finale.  It was put together to honor Henry Mancini's centennial.  The audience loved it.Here's the youtube link to the April 18th performance by tge younger orchestra at Stuyvesant High School where I conduct the orchestra.
