Unknown Carousel Music In Twilight Zone Episode
By Jim Leonard

Can anyone identify the music in this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOSZOTfSzLY 

Later this year, we will be involved in a presentation of Rod Serling's
Twilight Zone episode, "Walking Distance". The climax of the show occurs
at a carousel with organ music in the background.

Our local Philharmonic orchestra will be playing Bernard Hermann's music
and we have been asked if our Wurlitzer 146A could be a part of the show.
We would like to recreate the original song, but Hermann never specifically
identified what it should be. This played on CBS in 1959.

If you could identify the tune, please let us know, especially if you
know the Wurlitzer 150 roll number. Many thanks!
