In Bar 33 (dvd 00:12:11) there is a dissolve to Private Olie Larsen (played by
Martin Milner) giving his supportive account of the Major (Cooper). The key signature
here is now four flats. I believe this is the Battle Hymn of the Republic music sounded mf
molto espressivo. Violins play Line 1 C/Eb dotted 8ths to same C/Eb 16ths to C/Eb
dotted 8ths to Bb/Db 16ths to next figure of Ab/middle C dotted 8ths to C/Eb 16ths to
C/Ab dotted 8ths to Db/Bb 16ths. Etc. This key signature is canceled in Bar 45. Here two
muffled street drums play two three-note ruffs comprised of two grace notes to quarter
note to two grace notes to quarter note to quarter note trem roll to non-trem dotted 8 th to
16 th (repeated next bar).
[Escape] Reel 4/1, Agitato misterioso in C time. An oft-used music form or
design or construct here is given earlier first at dvd 00:21:30. Pos play pp small octave

quarter note down to D# staccato stand-alone 8 th tied to 8 th note to E# staccato 8 th to F#
staccato quarter note (repeated next bar). Horns are “cued in” playing the same pattern
and registers. The harp actually plays the pattern in the same registers.
[Herd Hideout] Reel 4/2, Moderato in C time. Dvd location 00:29:26. Terrific,
