Henry Mancini Plays "Too Little Time" (Love Theme from "The Glenn Miller Story")

Posted almost 4 years ago
Henry Mancini’s big break came in 1954 when he arranged and composed music for the 1954 Universal biographical film “The Glenn Miller Story” starring James Stewart and June Allyson. Although music long associated with Miller was heard throughout the film, the most memorable music was The Love Theme which later had words set to the music. Known as “Too Little Time,” it’s played here in an arrangement featuring trombonist Dick Nash that reminds us of what true love between two people is all about.

    JVaughan says Begging your pardon for an off-topic comment, and if I may please ask, did you see the comment I wrote this past Saturday reference what I can and cannot do on MOG? Respectfully and sincerely, JVaughan

    musikfriend says JVaughan, I am very much aware of your limitations. I also know that for some reason you couldn't hear most of what is posted. Can you take your mouse and left click or lightly press on the left click. It should be very responsive. Just put the cursor directly over the red circle with the aroow inside which is pointing to your right. Then take your mouse and left click. It should work out. This is as clear I can make, so hope you can work with it. Be sure and have your speaker or speakers turned up so that you can listen. Yours truly, musikfriend

    JVaughan says I am unable to see anything you describe for having now virtually no remaining eyesight, and usually do not use my mouse at all, but rather "click" using either Enter or the Space Bar. Neither do I left nor right click, but _MAYBE_ could experiment with so doing, though it would be on a surface other than the screen since again I could not point it at the correct place to do so. _MAYBE_ I could try moving the cursor using the Arrow Keys and then press the appropriate mouse button with the Mouse again on a surface other than the screen. Also the area where I am to place the cursor would have to be marked with appropriate textt for my reader to read me, but _MAYBE_ there already might be such. J. V.

    JVaughan says I thus far have been unable to locate the link, if there is an actual link, on which to line up my arrow keys and then press the Left Mouse Button. Perhaps I should have been more careful with my first attempt since I lined myself up on something which my reader described as "images/likeit" which, when I pressed the Right Mouse Button, opened the Favourites Tree View. Thus, for about the next week or so whenever I open I.E., I will have to listen to my reader read back to me the entire URL of my selected home page followed by "Favourites Tree View," and then the first item in that view, on which I left the arrow when I left. Pressing Enter on the name of the track took me to a page devoted to matters relevant to it, but with seemingly nowhere to play it. The only other thing I know to do for now is to check and find out if I still have the message you sent me two weeks ago with a possible "link" to the excerpt from _A_ _Song_ _Of_ _Thanksgiving_ and try your procedure on it, though I may have deleted that message by now. Thanking you _VERY_ much for your kind cooperation, and hoping that _SOMETHING_ might end up working, J. V. p.s. Though presumably you cannot help me with this, I am still puzzled as to why MOG's Search Facility will not work for me as the _VAST_ majority of search facilities I use do, though this edit field in which I am now writing, apart from not allowing me to proofread while I am typing, otherwise works as it should. If you can bear with me for just a moment or more, whenever I come to an edit field in which I am to write something, I press Enter on it, thus engaging what my reading software calls "Forms Mode," and that mode automatically disengages when I press "Go" after writing in a search field, or "Submit Comment" or the like elsewhere. When I try doing this in MOG's Search Facility, I can type a few words, but then I think Forms Mode turns off and the field disappears before I can finish writing my keywords. Again so far as I can recall, _NO_ other search field does that.

    JVaughan says And I _DID_ press the Left Mouse Button on that wrong link, not the Right Button!

    JVaughan says I fear I must have not been paying close attention to what you said, though doing so would have regretably have led to an early unfortunate result. You are asking me to left click on a circle with an arrow in it, and my reader can only work with links or the like with text in them, or something resembling text or a described graphic. Thus, if there is indeed only a red circle or button with an arrow in it, I fear there can be no music for me on MOG. J. V.

    musikfriend says Anyone! Could anyone help JVaughan? He seems like a decent mogger, so anyone who can help him with his ability to hear music should write in here! Everyone deserves to hear music! musikfriend

    JVaughan says I have another idea of my own. I will describe to you the order, from top of page through your initial post, in which things appear to my reader, and then _MAYBE_ you can tell me where that red circle appears in that order so that _MAYBE_, using the Arrow Keys, I can line up with, and try left-clicking, on it. At the top of the page there are some links having to do both with the Site in general and my account in particular. As you may know, I have you designated as a trusted MOG, and there is a "This Page Link" whereby I can remove you from that status, hopefully not to happen as long as I remain a MOG myself! Then, if I am not out of the order, comes a link with the title of your post in it, followed by the name of the song/work and the artist. There are one or two blank spaces somewhere in that group, and could that red circle/button be in one of them, and, if so, is it close to the margin? After links to the artist and selection name, there is a number. After this, if I recall aright, there is a blank line followed by the beginning of the initial post, and then, when it ends, another blank line before certain links prior to comments begin. And, in the group above the comment, there is that "images/likeit" link I errantly left-clicked on last night, thus resulting in me having to endure that preliminary extended reading each time I open I.E. for up to possibly a week. I fear that, though I have given you an approximate idea as to this layout, it is not 100 per cent comprehensive since I cannot leave what I am writing here and re-check since I would be unable to return here and find my place to resume writing. So, based on what I have tried to tell you, where exactly is this red circle with the arrow in it? To further try to clarify, everything goes in a single column for me from the top to the bottom of the page. There is no left and right as there is for sighted people. So I have no way of knowing where the left side of the page ends and the right begins, and vice versa, that is unless someone with eyesight is here assisting me, and that rarely happens. Begging your pardon for this lengthy attempt at an explanation, and hoping it somehow proved helpful, J. V. p.s. Since Rimsky-Korsakov's birthday fell during Holy Week this year, I belatedly celebrated it this morning by playing that great trilogy of his most famous orchestral works, and later hope to play Rachmaninov's _Second_ _Symphony_ and _Vocalise_ on his actual birthday today, thus a Russian day for me, though I might sneak something else in later, either Mr. Jonas Kaufmann's new CD, _Romantic_ _Arias_ or else some of the new Tony Palmer documentary on Vaughan Williams, that is if both have arrived in the post (I have a DVD player hooked up to my old stereo system, and thus can listen to DVD soundtracks through that set-up.
