Does anyone know the title of the music in the new Nike commercial? The commercial is a montage of atheletes getting prepared for their respective sports. The music reminds me somewhat of George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, though I don’t know why. Does anyone have an idea? Cheers!

It’s not a song. It’s just the sound of an orchestra warming up before a concert.

Oh.
Still, that sounds better than most of the junk out there today. 🙂
Heh, I guess the music and the idea of the commercial goes well together.
