Gonna Fly Now, besser bekannt als das Theme from Rocky, war schon 1977 ein Riesenerfolg für den Komponisten, Orchesterleiter und Oscar-Gewinner Bill Conti, der sich auch mit Musik zu legendären U.S.-Fernsehserien wie Denver Clan oder Falcon Crest einen Namen machte. Lorenzo Bocci, selbst ein anerkannter Komponist und Arrangeur, nahm sich des schwungvollen Titels erneut an und machte ihn so auch Ihrem Repertoire zugänglich. Bill Conti a composé les musiques de nombreuses productions hollywoodiennes ou séries télévisées américaines. Récompensé par un Oscar pour la musique du film L'Étoffe des Héros, il est pourtant entré dans l’histoire du cinéma avec le célébrissime thème Gonna Fly Now extrait du film culte Rocky (1976) qui révéla Sylvester Stallone. L’arrangement de Lorenzo Bocci ne laissera personne de marbre.
