Description
Originally a character piece for piano by Gounod, this piece achieved its greatest fame as the theme tune for Alfred Hitchcock Presents on British Television. It became Alfred HItchcock's own leitmotif due to the popularity of the programme and also to its mixture of comedy and grotesquerie. This arrangement is for British Brass Band and should be playable by most standards of band. The basses, of course, have a prominent role to play. Alternative parts are available (eg bass clef trombone/euph/tuba) free of charge upon request.
