Jam session at Henry Mancini's home, Fernando
Gelbard (at left), Henry Mancini (holding his flute) and Hal Linden
(holding his clarinet). The piano player (not seen here) was Mel
Torme (actually, the top of his head is seen in the lower right
portion of the photo!)
"Henry Mancini and I were good friends. I
played with him a few times (he and I play flute) and we served on
the board of the Foundation for New American Music for many years.
His death was a great loss. He was a great, down to earth
man."
--Fernando Gelbard
