The Apartment ("The Key to Love") - Charles Williams
Theme from The Apartment.
It was also published, with lyrics, as The Key to Love (get it?). Here is an obnoxiously schmaltzy version of the song:

From Wikipedia:
Quote:
"The Apartment" is a 1960 American romantic comedy film that was produced and directed by Billy Wilder, and which stars Jack Lemmon, Shirley MacLaine, and Fred MacMurray.
It was Wilder's next movie after "Some Like It Hot" and, like its predecessor, a commercial and critical success, grossing $25 million at the box office. The film was nominated for ten Academy Awards, and won five, including Best Picture. The film was the basis of the 1968 Broadway musical "Promises, Promises," with book by Neil Simon, music by Burt Bacharach, and lyrics by Hal David.
The film's title theme, written by Charles Williams and originally titled "Jealous Lover", was first heard in the 1949 film The Romantic Age. A recording by Ferrante & Teicher, released as "The Theme from The Apartment", reached #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart later in 1960.
Here is Jealous Lover, sounding almost like part of the Warsaw Concerto (which also was written for film):

And here is a suite from the soundtrack, conducted by Adolph Deutsch, himself a composer of much film music.:

The theme was played as a ballad in the movie. My arrangement is a medium swing tune.
