I know Rick Baptist did some or all of the work for theatrical adaptation, but does anyone know who was playing for the TV show recording in 1966? I love how he/she belts out the C and D.

I can't say for sure, but it was likely Claude Gordon, as Mission Impossible was a Desilu production and in particular because Wilbur Hatch was the Music Supervisor for the series during its first two seasons (Hatch was the Musical Conductor for I Love Lucy - another Desilu Production - for which Claude played 1st Trumpet prior to Mission Impossible coming out). I wish I had asked Claude about this when I had the chance.
Cheers,

There's a YouTube page called "Who Played That Theme?" that lists the musicians used on TV Themes. How accurate is it? Who knows, but these look like the usual suspects from that time period.
