No Time to Die is a the twenty-fifth instalment in the James Bond film series produced by Eon Productions. It features Daniel Craig in his fifth and final outing as the fictional MI6 agent James Bond. It is directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw, Rory Kinnear, Jeffrey Wright, Léa Seydoux, and Christoph Waltz reprise their roles from previous films, with Rami Malek, Lashana Lynch, Dali Benssalah, Billy Magnussen, and Ana de Armas joining the cast.



The theme song is sung by the American singer Billie Eilish. In January 2019, Eilish told her management that she wanted to be involved "if any Bond things come up?whatever we have to do we will do". When the opportunity did arise, the pair jumped into action to book a recording studio, but it left them "intensely uninspired" and suffering from writer's block. Following this lacklustre day in the studio and they ended up writing and recording the song in a tour bus in Texas, after Finneas came up with an initial chord progression; in just three days the song was written and recorded. Prior to this, the siblings had a meeting with Bond producer Barbara Broccoli, who sent them the script for the opening scene in order to give them a bit of inspiration, which Eilish said was "so cool" and "really, really helpful."

Finneas claimed it was useful to go back to listen to previous Bond themes to ensure they were on the right track and did not copy or recreate something which had already been done before, adding that "there are few things in your career that are as desirable as doing a Bond song. We did not take the opportunity lightly and worked as hard as we could to prove ourselves". Eilish also revealed that Daniel Craig himself had a major role in vetting the submissions.

A dramatic arrangement for Brass Band of this number from the film Top Gun. Opening quietly, the main theme progresses through a series of key changes with the "guitar solo" transcribed for Solo Cornet before the DS and the build up to the climatic ending.

This is the fantastic fanfares and march which opens the Star Trek: Next Generation television series, which stared Sir Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard, who, on board the star ship Enterprise, boldly went where none had gone before. The music was composed by Jerry Goldsmith, who had also written the music for The Omen, Alien, Rambo and Air Force One. Goldsmith will also responsible for on of the most well known pieces in films, the Universal Studios Fanfare. This exciting arrangement would be a great opening to a sci-fi or space themed concert programme. Duration: 2 minutes www.maxstannardmusic.com @MStannardMusic.
