CONWAY — On Saturday, Grammy-winning Juilliard graduates and identical twins, Peter and Will Anderson, will explore the music of Henry Mancini in a concert at the Majestic Theatre in Conway Village. The brothers will perform Mancini’s music with a five-piece ensemble, and will add a fascinating narrative detailing the life and times of Mancini himself.

Mancini, one of the greatest composers in film history, was also a conductor, arranger, pianist and flutist. He was the winner of four Academy Awards, twenty Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe, and a posthumous Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Some of his best-known works include the “Pink Panther” theme, the theme and soundtrack for the television series “Peter Gunn” and the song “Moon River” from the film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.”
