LPWire: A Tribute to Norman "Buddy" Baker

A Tribute to Norman "Buddy" Baker

The music of Buddy Baker is the underscore that touches the heart of everyone who visits Disneyland, Walt Disney World and Tokyo Disneyland. Baker was responsible for the "Disney sound," having scored the original Mickey Mouse Club as well as The Wonderful World of Color. In this tribute to Baker, who was also director of the Scoring for Motion Pictures and Television program at USC, some of Baker's dearest friends, collaborators, colleagues and musicians will share songs, stories and memories of the maestro. Special guests and performers include jazz drummer Louis Bellson, composer Joe Harnell, and songwriter Richard Sherman. The program will also feature film clips with music from Baker's vast catalog.

A new exhibit commemorating Baker's life and career with Disney will also open at Alfred Newman Hall on the USC University Park campus, and continue through May 2004.

When: Sunday, September 28, 3 p.m.
Where: Bing Theatre, USC University Park Campus
Tickets: Free
