Mike Worth wrote:"Sounds and Scores" by Henry Mancini (Pink Panther). That's a great book, from one of the classic Hollywood composers.
Thanx guys!
The Mancini book, as well as a few others, now added to my Amazon wish-list.
Your generous advice mucho mucho appreciated.
Cheers,

…string theory says that all subatomic particles of the universe are nothing but musical notes. A, B-flat, C-sharp, correspond to electrons, neutrinos, quarks, and what have you. Therefore, physics is nothing but the laws of harmony of these strings. Chemistry is nothing but the melodies we can play on these strings. The universe is a symphony of strings and the mind of God… it is cosmic music resonating through 11 dimensional hyperspace.
