Here's a short and sweet one and a real beauty: https://www.dropbox.com/s/66ef0nu73kxymhs/Mysteriouly%20mysterious%20mystery%20track.mp3?dl=0

Ok for once doesn't sound really familiar. It kinda has a Rachel Portman vibe but I know it's likely not her....but I'm going to guess British anyway. Probably reletively recent, and probably some manner of music from media.

It sounds rather English pastoral to me; could it be Richard Rodney Bennett?

Stanley Black or ken Thorne?

Nope. Not a British composer.


Schifrin, Rosenmann, Lascalles?


Nice try, BillC.

We hear/read much about Richard LaSalle ripping off Goldsmith and others, but my clip isn't written by any American.

Both you and Damian are barking up the wrong trees.
(You should, rather, be closer to the pines of Rome smile )


It's not Respighi. I've a fair bit of his.So if it is I'd eat my hat if I had one

Roman?

Its a weird theme. Could be for a bar in marrakesh or a seductuve belly dancer in a tent in the saharan desert. Then it goes mental with the trumpet blast that is almost TV movie. Even nearly man who haunted himself michael j lewis ish!

Sorry got no clue.

That's why I threw in Stanley black .I was thinking of his 'sands of the Desert ' suite.Not that specifically but something like it ,slight less serious.
It has a b movie feel to it

No, not Respighi.

I was referring to the composer being Italian - not that the piece of music is in any way related to Respighi's pines.
Mystery clip is from an Italian soundtrack.

Yep. Italian "B" movie set in Africa during WWII.

British is correct. Not from media. As far as I can tell, this composer has not written for film and this composer has been a rather astonishing friend to film music.

And to the other guesser - not Richard Rodney Bennett.

No clew, eh?

Both BillCarson and Damian stumped on an Italian composer?

OK

Here's the reveal:

Angelo Francesco Lavagnino's 1967 Attentato ai tre grandi (aka Desert Commandos) on Saimel CD track #5.

Let's just say this composer is also a preservationist of sorts, and amazingly so. Many film composers owe this person a great dept.

Gordon Langford shows up on the "light music" radar (your clip fits the bill) and re-arrangement of pieces by various film composers, but then he's got two composer credits listed on IMDB, so…

Not Langford, not Rumba. Light music is correct, of course.

Alrighty, then.

Howz about Ernest Tomlinson aka Alan Perry, who, according to Wikipedia, apparently saved the BBC's "light music" archive from disposal?

Nothing to do with saving "light" music and everything to do with saving film scores where the music had been lost or destroyed.
