Monty Norman, the man who designed the iconic James Bond theme, passed away at the age of 94. He is survived by his second wife, Rina Caesari, and a daughter.

A statement posted on his official website read, “It is with sadness we share the news that Monty Norman died on 11th July 2022 after a short illness.” Norman most famously composed the score for Dr. No, the 1962 James Bond film starring Sean Connery. His theme for James Bond, as arranged by fellow Englishman John Barry, would go on to become the theme for the entire franchise.

Norman was a former big band singer who turned songwriter in the late 1950s. He enjoyed a West End hit in 1958 with Irma La Douce, adapted from an earlier successful French musical. —IANS
