  • This is my rendition of the closing theme for "As the World Turns". The late Charles Paul, who composed this theme was a prolific organist and musical director on many old time radio show and television soap operas.

    I can remember hearing that theme when I was a little kid. My mom watched As The World Turns everyday.

    Something was losed when the serials went to orchestrated music and discontinued the organ because of disagreements with the music unions.There was mothing like the organ to set the mood and keep you on the edge of your seats.
    Lance thankyou for bringing back so many memories that we will never have again.

    Just perfect! This reminds me so much of my grandmother who watched ATWT in the early 60's. Before I started school, I'd watch with her. She'd often get annoyed with what the characters were up to (esp. Lisa) and yell at the TV. I think this was one of the best soap themes ever and you played it perfectly.
