The Best Trumpet Movie Theme Ever! - Page 2

Wow - looked up "godfather theme trumpet" on youtube and there's a guy playing it, with a link to the printed music. COOL. Yeah, that's a good one.

Wasn't it originally done on mandolin or something? That's not as cool as trumpet.

Another vote for Superman. Plus, the love theme is a gorgeous piece too.

"Damn, I thought that was closer." Ha!

Gotta love the trumpet solo in the hospital scene in Star Trek IV (it uh...rushes a little...).

Only like six people have probably ever seen it, but "The Rocketeer" had a really cool theme. It sometimes gets reused in trailers that come out before the movie's actual music is written.

Me! Me! I'm one of the six people who have seen The Rocketeer! I was even reading the comic book before the movie.

I'm also one of the 3 people in the US who can read the Viz Comic and actually laugh. Viz.co.uk

Jennifer Connelly was reason enough to see The Rocketeer.

I believe you are referring to Uan Rasey
