Scene: The Woods. You are unaware that you are being stalked by a bear. "The Pink Panther" arranged and performed for five Double Basses plays in the background. Enter clearing (stage left) where the five piece Double Bass ensemble are playing "the Pink Panther". Stop. Look confused. Break the fourth wall by looking at the camera and shrugging. Exit clearing. (state right) Sounds of bear attacking quintet behind you.

Imagine sneaking down a forest trail as quietly as possible so as not to disturb a sleeping bear... and then a double bass quintet starts playing this theme.

A magnificent tune interpreted with double basses and out in nature, it gives the melody the realistic meaning of the Pink Panther theme. The double bass quintet gives a radiant sparkle of an unexpected surprise in the woods. The acoustic pluck gives resonance to the melody. The string players have a great synchronised exchange of communication. KUDOS to the musicians and the composer!

They need to have the Pink Panthers head coming out from behind different trees in the background.
