Nice list. One addition, I have an entire piano book of music from MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY.

Also published by Miller Music and featuring cover art (although mine fell apart) that is very much like the one you show for the Love Theme only. The book had about 8 pieces in it, including the Love Theme (with lyrics) and the Main Title, also some others.

Very nice. The one from Mutiny on the Bounty would look well in a frame... !

I'm just drooling to look at the chords in "Gloria" and "Invitation".

(David Raksin called them "shoulder chords"!)

Was Kaper's main title for "The F.B.I." ever published as sheet music?

INVITATION (Based on the theme from)
Note: Generic Cover

The copy of this that I now own has a generic-ky cover (pink with a gloved hand holding title).

And those chords sure look (as Raksin used to say) "juicy"!

Wow, I do envy you! Is there any chance to have a closer look at the "Gloria" sheet music (I've desperately been trying to get hold of this for years - all in vain)?

I don't have "Gloria," which is from BUTTERFIELD 8.

What, no, "While My Lady Sleeps" from THE CHOCOLATE SOLDIER?

Well, I'm glad to see the THE FLEA IN HER EAR exists, but there's more good stuff in this score.

I wish there was a folio.

Is anyone by any chance in possession of (a) high-res picture(s) of Mr. Kaper (> 1000x1000 pixel)?
I'm searching for a "nice" photo of the man to put in my digital music library.

I've done image searches with Google and stuff but didn't find anything useful...
(I found this one but it's quite pixelated: https://sztetl.org.pl/sites/default/files/styles/photo-hires/public/bronislaw_kaper_z_oscarem.jpg)
