I've included the jazzier part B; (no part C yet).

Instead of providing TAB, over the next few days I'll annotate the video to show chord changes and fingerings etc. It's a fairly tight arrangement of the Henry Mancini original, part A played once, then part B which modulates to G minor from the E minor. Then back to part A.

Lovely version - nice bass lines - I couldn't find the sheet so I totally wingedy version! But this sounds lively indeed - Mancini was a genius!
Great arrangement

Thanks a lot Steve, I couldn't find the sheet music either, took me ages to work out what was going on harmonically, before realising that the changes themselves are actually very simple. It was the key change that threw me initially. The bass lines just spoke from the chords really.

Next step is to arrange part C, the jazzy improvisation bit.

Heard your version, magic. It's like a new piece in many respects, as jazz should be. Well done, I'll be checking out your website.

All the best
Mike.

Hi Mike,
That's really good. I'd never have thought that would come out so well. Neat arrangement and well played.
