The Jazz Imposters introduce themselves to Neal Hefti and familiarize themselves with a ballad he composed for the Count Basie Orchestra in 1957, Li’l Darlin’. Our hosts dive into dynamics and the important role they play in this tune and all music. Upon researching Hefti’s history, they quickly uncover a hefty legacy in television and film composing, including the theme song for a certain caped crusader.
