About this item
The exciting "Thunderbirds" tv series (filmed in "Supermarionation"!!) was one of the most popular children's programmes in the 1960s. It has been brought back in recent years to the delight of a whole new generation. The theme music, specially writtenfor the series, makes an excellent march.
Because of the interesting keys that this piece passes through the clarinet parts appear more straightforward in A, although the part provided is given in both Bb and A.
