Introduction of Orchestra (Live)

Lyrics

[Spoken] Thank you very kindly, ladies and gentlemen We'd like to take the time that we have presently to have you say hello to some of the wonderful gentlemen on stage who are, of course, making it all possible for us Before we do, may I express my sincere appreciation for your being such a warm, cordial audience Ladies and gentlemen, we'd like to have you meet my very competent musical director He's a good friend, he's a composer, terrific alto saxophonist He's also this year's—he's this year's pole vaulting champion No, no, no, wanna have a great big round of applause for Mister Maurice King right here, ladies and gentlemen We think the orchestra's, think the orchestra's doing a marvelous job We'd like to have them stand up and take a well-deserved round of applause—gentlemen You're very kind
