Do you want to listen to a stereo version of this piece? 8D Audio Film Music video on Lalo Schifrin's “Mission: Impossible“ , played by a virtual ensemble. The theme is written in a 5/4 time signature, which Schifrin has jokingly explained as being “for people who have five legs“. Schifrin started from the Morse code for M.I. which is “_ _ ..“; if a dot is one beat and a dash is one and a half beats, then this gives a bar of five beats, exactly matching the underlying rhythm. The first notes of the theme are played by a flute using a trill.
