  History of Instrumental Music : ChristianCourier.com
Though the use of mechanical instruments of music in worship are common in both the Catholic and Protestant communities of “Christendom, ” most people do not realize that this function was unknown to the churches of the apostolic age.
It is crucially important to observe that although instrumental music of various types was readily available in contemporary society, no passage shows that the churches mentioned in the New Testament ever used instrumental music in worship.
Following the Civil War, instrumental music in worship began to be introduced first in a few, then in more and more of the churches in the restoration movement.

 Letters: What ever happened to TV theme songs? - Salon
Unique theme songs these days have to be either self-consciously cheesy (Family Guy) or blink-and-you'll-miss them (Studio 60).
TV theme songs are a great part of TV history, but I think they're inextricably entwined with an earlier, less subtle age of television.
For the first two or three years, it had an instrumental theme that I thought was pretty good.

 Something Old, Nothing New: Best Movie Theme Ever?   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The themes for Star Wars or Kings Row or Superman (wait, they're all basically the same theme) stand for those movies in our heads; they are much more important to the image of the movies than, say, poster logos, which can change many times and be forgotten rather quickly.
Here is the final statement of the theme, from the closing scene -- as usual with Vincente Minnelli, all in one take -- and the closing credits (note that John Houseman, the producer, who'd worked on Citizen Kane, does something similar to Kane by showing clips of all the main actors at the end).
Jerry Goldsmith's main theme to "In Like Flint" which is the instrumental version of "Your Zowie Face".They each swing a little and are nice waltzes.

 The Five: Instrumental TV theme songs that haunt my dreams - TV Squad
When I learned about the Seinfeld tidbit that they tried to add nonsense lyrics to the theme but failed, I started thinking about theme songs over the years that stick in your head despite the fact that they're presented without lyrics.
It's just weird to think that the third-funkiest theme song ever was written by the same guy who wrote "Moon River".
ER: James Newton Howard's theme effectively conveys the ever-quickening pace of a big-city emergency room, smashing from the cold opening into the first notes of the theme, then building and building until the pay-off as the featured cast member (Eriq LaSalle, Paul McCrane, and now Laura Innes) pumps a fist or bursts through the door.

 Cinematical Seven: Best Bond Theme Songs - Blogging Sundance

 Coda: Grammy Groaners > Opera News > The Met Opera Guild
(Mondo what?!) Also in the Best Score category, the Academy forsook Mikis Theodorakis's Zorba the Greek for Johnny Mandel's The Sandpiper in 1965 and, as 1968's Best Instrumental Theme, anointed Mason Williams's Classical Gas rather than Hugo Montenegro's The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
And then there was 1996, when the award for Best Album from a Musical went not to the exuberant, genre-blending Rent but to Celtic kitsch-fest Riverdance.
The Best New Artist category, always a good barometer of the clarity or cloudiness of the Academy's crystal ball, shows that 1967 was a cloudy year; Jefferson Airplane was up for the award, but the Academy decided it wanted somebody else to love, in the person of Bobbie Gentry.
