You Only Live Twice

US$29.99

Bring the sophisticated sound of James Bond to your next concert with this arrangement of “You Only Live Twice” for Concert Band or Wind Band.

Composed by John Barry, with lyrics by Leslie Bricusse, the memorable title theme from the 1967 James Bond film was originally performed by Nancy Sinatra. Its atmospheric opening, sweeping melody and Japanese-influenced orchestral colours have made it one of the most distinctive themes in the Bond musical catalogue.

I originally created this arrangement during the 1980s while studying orchestration and arranging with the distinguished military musician Lt. Col. Trevor Sharpe. The arrangement retains the elegance, mystery and cinematic character of Barry’s original while adapting it effectively for modern concert-band performance.

Scored for a full concert band or wind band, this intermediate-level arrangement is suitable for film-music concerts, themed programmes, community bands, school ensembles and festival performances.
