The guy with the triangle is a percussionist and he doesn't just play a triangle in his carrier.

En los años 70's y 80's hasta las caricaturas tenian el privilegio de tener su propia orquesta, que maravilloso.

Tienes toda la razon! Esas caricaturas tenian buena calidad de dibujos, buenas historias y sobre todo, muy buenos temas musicales.

@Anaisa es por eso que consideran a la pantera rosa, la última gran caricatura que Hollywood creó...
@cha-cha_supercazador
Es la clásica "antes era mejor". Las series animadas de hoy también cuentan con sobresalientes bandas sonoras e historias más profundas. Otra cosa; ¿a qué le dices "más realismo"? Claramente ahí suceden cosas de lo más chuscas y sin sentido. No está siendo objetivo, señor. A mí también me gustan las caricaturas antiguas, pero los gustos son subjetivos y su opinión solo se basa en el pensamiento empírico y no en el crítico.

@xander1052
@Rui Cameira Jazz not metal.
@RUfromthe40s
@xander10 don´t know any group of instruments called jazz ,and anyway what does jazz have to do with this, do you know what is called jazz music, because this isn´t
@xander1052
@Rui Cameira Metal isn't a group of instruments either, it like jazz is a genre, Saxophone is woodwind, trumpet, trombone etc is brass.
The pink panther theme is Jazz, I listen to a lot of Jazz, and Wikipedia agrees with me https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pink_Panther_Theme so not only do you need to learn your instrument families, you need to learn your genres too.

@RustySax1949
Way back in my senior year of high school, our jazz band played this number multiple times. As the lead tenor sax player, I never had any trouble playing the main melody lines of the song, but always struggled with the solo part - never could quite get the "feel" to add that something special to the solo. . . That was fifty years ago, but when I dig my horn out from the back of the closet, the first sound out of the bell is "The Pink Panther Theme," I still remember how to play it. . . Such an iconic melody!

Cuando los dibujos animados para niños tenían esta música, algo se estaba haciendo bien.
@Wics83
Esa cancion no fue compuesta para el dibujo animado, Pedro para la pelicula "La Pantera Rosa" que vino antes de la caricatura. Trata acerca del detective Jacques Closeau resolviendo el robo de una joya llamada La Pantera Rosa. Al inicio de la pelicula, en los creditos iniciales, utilizan una animacion de una Pantera rosada y de ahi esa animacion fue utilizada para la serie de caricaturas junto a la cancion
@aml0203
@William C. Staffeld lo sé, solo he mencionado que fue utilizada en los dibujos y que muchos niños, entre ellos yo, crecieron escuchando buena música gracias a esa serie que se repetía a menudo en las televisiones. Después de la película, se creó la serie pero nadie infantilizó la música, algo por lo que estoy muy agradecida.

Everyone's raving about the triangle! Besides the very enthusiastic triangle guy hitting it with his mouth open like a shred guitarist, it's Mancini's composition, the way the triangle is more up front in the mix than usual & creates this terrific "sneaky, swingy spy" element throughout the piece like a tiptoeing Pink Panther. The triangle is definitely great. Now, let's hear it for that HORN SECTION, yowie!! Talk about a tight ensemble...
