That's it. It's the wick on a kerosene lantern.

Your turn, Admiral.

Sorry to take so long.
I hope we can have some fun with this one.
It will help if you have musical knowledge but it's not necessary.

The following images are pieces of the whole.

I will add as we go - depending on how the sleuthing proceeds .....

An Alexander Courage arrangement of Beyond The Blue Horizon, by George Olsen?

 

[AdmiralAdama]

It is a Courage arrangement that was inspired by
"Beyond The Blue Horizon" but not Olsen's. The arrangement that captivated Courage, was by Richard Whiting and Franke Harling.





BTW - lyrics were never meant to be part of this piece of music. The addition of the lyrics was done unbeknownst to Courage, solely for the purpose of profit.

It's the Star Trek theme. The lyrics were added by Gene Roddenberry for the sole purpose of claiming half the royalties as co-writer.
