Batman Suite
By Neal Hefti, Danny Elfman, Hans Zimmer, James Newton Howard, Nick Gage, Scott Lamps, Junkie XL, and Chris Sernal
Arr. Michael Gancz '21
From his first appearance in Detective Comics #27 in May of 1939, Bruce-Man — I mean, Bat-Wayne — I mean, f*%&#! I CLEARLY meant Bruce Wayne. Who's this Batman guy? Obviously I don't know him. But he sounds like a totally cool dude. Like, I would totally hang out with him. He's probably super rich and stuff and as a ton of friends or whatever. Probably owns a yacht. And he calls it the Bat-Yacht. Not that I would know, though. I just think it's a cool name. He's definitely not me; I'm Batm— BRUCE. Bruce Wayne. I, uh, have a cold. My coughs sound like "Batman," which is totally normal. No more questions.
(Phew, I think I got away with it. No one will EVER know the secret identity of the world's greatest detective!)
Anyway, Batman is turning 80 soon so here's an arrangement of some Batman music. Enjoy!
